Marshall Plumlee had himself a busy weekend.
On Saturday, the former Duke big man starred for the D-League’s Westchester Knicks, scoring 22 points on 9-for-13 shooting to go with eight rebounds, two blocks and a steal in 32 minutes of floor time in a win over the Greensboro Swarm, the Charlotte Hornets’ affiliate. Less than 15 hours after putting the finishing touches on that win, the 24-year-old center — playing in the D-League after signing with the New York Knicks as an undrafted free agent this summer — found himself in a race against the clock to make his big-league debut.
