Knicks guard's greatest strength has become his biggest weakness
Indiana Pacers v New York Knicks | Elsa/GettyImagesThe Knicks fell 91-88 to the Indiana Pacers, falling to 1-3 in summer league play. Second-year guard Tyler Kolek had five turnovers in the loss, something that has become a huge problem for him in Las Vegas. Through four games, Kolek now has 18 turnovers, the second-most of any player.
It is important to note that the Knicks rolled out an interesting lineup against the Pacers. Pacome Dadiet, Kevin McCullar Jr., Ariel Hukporti, and Mohamed Diawara all missed the game due to injuries. Still, second-year players should dominate summer league play, and Kolek hasn't been able to this summer, at least not consistently.
