In preparation for the Knicks' back-to-back games against the Mavericks and Clippers, Coach Thibs provided insight into players' progress. Jalen Brunson is steadily improving in his rehabilitation, while Tyler Kolek's hard work in the G League has set him up for success in the NBA. Additionally, the impact of mentorship from Rick Brunson is significant for younger players adapting to the complexities of the NBA game, as they transition from college basketball's structure to the faster-paced and strategically intricate professional level.
He's doing a lot of shooting, working the pool, working the bike. Stuff like that. So his conditioning is pretty good, actually.
He's worked hard all year. The things that he needed to do, he did. He works. He's a tireless worker.
Just taking what I can from people like that and really valuing what he has to say.
Learning the NBA game, it's really different from college. The speed of the game... it's just basketball.
