Knicks' Tyler Kolek: Pops for 15 points Wednesday
Kolek compiled 15 points (6-10 FG, 1-4 3PT, 2-2 FT), five assists, two rebounds and two steals in 17 minutes during Wednesday's 117-94 win over the Wizards.
Kolek continues to push his claim for regular-season minutes, putting together another strong performance. Taken at pick No. 34 in the 2024 NBA Draft, Kolek will have to earn his spot in the rotation, and he is competing with Cameron Payne for backup point guard minutes behind Jalen Brunson. Despite being undersized, Kolek has an intriguing offensive skill set, something that could at least put him in the discussion for playing time on Opening Night.
