The highly anticipated matchup between Zion Williamson and RJ Barrett in the New York Knicks’ first summer league game did not live up to the hype. From Williamson’s knee injury to Barrett’s poor night, it was a quiet night, before an earthquake rattled the Thomas & Mack Center and ended the game prematurely.
48 hours later, the Knicks will return to the court for another summer league matchup. This time, it is against the Phoenix Suns.
Barrett’s aforementioned evening was disappointing, finishing with 10 points on 4-for-18 shooting and 1-for-8 from behind the arc.
