After averaging 30 points a game through the first 12 games of this season, New York Knicks’ forward Kristaps Porzingis has hit a minor slump lately after scoring 20, 22, and 13 points over the past three games.
Knicks’ head coach Jeff Hornacek gave an interesting explanation for Porzingis’ slump.
“Didn’t Aaron Judge kind of just go through this?” said Hornacek on Sunday, via the New York Post. “So relax, people, relax. He’ll be all right, just like Aaron Judge.”
Porzingis has been dealing with elbow bursitis, but it’s calmed down lately after taking a game off last week.
