Tyler Kolek’s emergence is creating havoc for opponents. Soon enough, it’s going to incite a little chaos for the New York Knicks—in the form of a backcourt-minutes crunch.
Distributing playing time isn’t much of an issue at the moment for head coach Mike Brown. Both Landry Shamet (shoulder) and Deuce McBride (ankle) are on the bench. Their absences (largely) laid the groundwork for Kolek to become a prominent part of the rotation.
The dilemma in which New York finds itself is punctuated by a simple question: What happens when everyone comes back?
This is no doubt a problem the Knicks will welcome.
