First of all, let’s put aside the fact that Tiuesday night’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks was a night to forget with injuries to Kristaps Porzingis, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Enes Kanter.
One of the most interesting things went down during the second half when the Knicks were getting blown out.
With Porzingis and Kanter already out, it would have made sense for the Knicks to give Willy Hernagomez more playing time. But they didn’t.
With the NBA trade deadline on Thursday, we can only guess that they didn’t want to risk him getting injured.
