The Knicks went 3-for-3 in Washington, D.C. during their preseason opener. Not from the field – but with their rookie showings. And isn’t that what Scott Perry’s 2018-19 vision is mostly about, after running his first draft as chief operator? Kevin Knox, Mitchell Robinson and Allonzo Trier all excelled in different ways.
