New York Knicks at Orlando Magic
Team Totals: Knicks 107, 102.5
Injury Report: Al-Farouq Aminu (Q, knee), Evan Fournier (Q, back), James Ennis (Q, groin)
Knicks projected starters: Elfrid Payton, R.J. Barrett, Reggie Bullock, Julius Randle, Nerlens Noel
Magic projected starters: Michael Carter-Williams, Evan Fournier, Dwayne Bacon, Gary Clark, Nikola Vucevic
Thibodeau quotes: Said Randle getting comfortable shooting the 3-pointer has been big (and all the work he puts in), said he does have some concern about Noel getting into foul trouble but said Noel was great in PNR D against Trae-Capela, said he’s not worried about R.J. but sometimes he might have to sacrifice (among others), said centers rolling to the rim more has resulted in better offense.
Clifford quotes: Said Chasson Randle has to work hard to get up to speed, said Randle’s going to help with deep treys, said Vooch’s improvement on decision-making has been big, said Al-Farouq Aminu and Evan Fournier went through a non-contact practice and the team will see how everyone feels tomorrow (nobody did contact, didn’t mention Cole Anthony), said team was still consistent despite the injuries.
