Former Knick Iman Shumpert filling a key role for Nets
A former Knicks castoff has reemerged as a valuable role player in Brooklyn.
Iman Shumpert has become a regular member of the Nets’ rotation over the past nine games, serving largely as a perimeter stopper on the second unit in Brooklyn’s 6-3 run without injured guard Kyrie Irving.
Shumpert, who won a championship alongside Irving and LeBron James with Cleveland in 2016, is averaging 4.7 points and one steal over 18 minutes per game since the Nets signed him Nov. 13.
