Bobby Portis cites David Fizdale as a reason for signing with New York Knicks

The New York Knicks may have struck out on the crème de la crème of free agency, but they were active this summer nonetheless.

One of the team’s biggest signings of the offseason was 24-year-old big man, Bobby Portis. The former Chicago Bull and Washington Wizard is excited for the opportunity to play for the Knicks and more specifically, David Fizdale.

“Just the feel, they have a great coach in David Fizdale, they got a lot of young pieces out there I think I can come in and fit with,” Portis told David Yapkowitz of Basketball Insiders.
