Donte DiVincenzo surprisingly backs his former head coach

Donte DiVincenzo spent just one season with the Knicks. In that one year though, he became a fan favorite. The 6-foot-4 shooting guard set a franchise record for threes made in a season and hit an extremely memorable three-pointer in their opening round playoff matchup against the 76ers.

Apparently that one season left enough of a lasting impression with DiVincenzo, particularly with his head coach at the time, Tom Thibodeau. He tried to make sure his new Timberwolves teammates did not disrespect coach Thibs.
