The New York Knicks entered Las Vegas with tempered expectations and high aspirations. While a 2-3 record wasn’t exactly what the coaching staff was hoping for, New York received encouraging contributions from a number of the players on the Summer League roster.
There were quite a few individuals who contributed positively, but the question for the Knicks to answer is simple: Whose contributions were actually worth taking note of?
In some instances, the players who thrived were those who had the brightest of spotlights shining down on them. In others, it was the unsung heroes who managed to reward the faith placed in them by general manager Scott Perry and team president Steve Mills.
