New York Knicks: Kristaps Porzingis must play with an attacking mindset

Kristaps Porzingis has played well in his first year as the New York Knicks‘ offensive focal point, but there are still glaring holes in his game, one being his tendency to settle for outside jumpers. If the big man wants to elevate his game to greater heights, he must play with an attacking mindset.

The Knicks went into their Monday afternoon affair with the Brooklyn Nets looking to snap a three-game skid and get back on the winning sides of things after also dropping 10 of their last 12 games. Thanks to 26 points from Porzingis on an efficient 8-of-14 shooting from the field and 2-of-3 from beyond the arc, as well as nine rebounds and two blocks in just 27 minutes, the Knicks were able to win their third game versus the Nets this season, 119-104.
