LAS VEGAS — Knicks first-round draft pick Kevin Knox has been struggling with his shooting stroke in Summer League play, and he got off to another slow start Tuesday night when he missed all six shots he took in a scoreless first quarter.
But Knox more than made up for it the rest of the way, scoring 29 points and helping the Knicks wipe out an 11-point deficit and take a fourth-quarter lead only to see it slip away in a 109-92 loss to the Lakers.
Knox made nine of his final 16 shots, including a 5-for-7 effort from three-point range.
