The New York Knicks are looking for more from a former Duke basketball standout.
The last time RJ Barrett stepped on a basketball court in a postseason game he was donning a Duke basketball uniform as the Blue Devils fell to the Michigan State Spartans in the Elite Eight.
Now, he’s taking the floor at Madison Square Garden with the New York Knicks who are in the playoffs for the first time since 2013.
Barrett had an incredible highlight reel dunk which electrified 15,000 people in The Garden but other than his poster, he struggled under the pressure of his first playoff game.
