Waiting to find out what the New York Knicks of the upcoming season, fans of the Big Apple franchise certainly cannot be thrilled with their players’ performance in summer tournaments. In the past few hours Julius Randle, the newcomer Jalen Brunson e Obi Toppin joined together to play a game at Pro City Hoops and they lost by as many as 13 points.
Obviously the news caused a stir: it is not often that a team fielding one NBA player (here even three) loses a game in which very often the opponents are not even professionals. The final result was 110-97.
