New York Knicks guard Luca Vildoza started his first NBA Training Camp on the wrong foot—a walking boot.
Vildoza, who has yet to recover from an ankle injury he sustained in the NBA Summer League last month, was reduced to a spectator. And his chances to realize his NBA dream are getting slimmer by the day.
“Look, we have one roster spot open. Right now, you base it on the guys that are available and who can help the team the most,” said Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau when asked about Vildoza’s status.
But he was quick to add that they still have time to evaluate their roster.
