GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- Kristaps Porzingis remains the towering sight at Knicks practice, just not in the middle of the action.
With the new system being put in place by head coach David Fizdale, Porzingis has been active and engaged, not walking through with the rest of the players as he rehabilitates from the torn ACL that has him sidelined for an indefinite period, but learning and teaching.
“He’s on our staff now,” Fizdale joked. “He’s helping put stuff in. I mean the guy is so engaged and helping the big guys. He gets it. He sees exactly what I’m trying to do.
