The Knicks were hot on a 2-game winning streak and despite the recent drama that was hanging over The Garden, the team was able to focus and go. Following last night’s Knicks-Jazz game, Donovan Mitchell spoke really highly of Frank Ntilikina.
In moments like these, when your team is obviously not fighting for a spot in the playoffs, it’s great to hear your effort being recognized by your peers in the league. Utah Jazz Donovan Mitchell chimed in on Frank Ntilikina.
“He’s solid. I always tell him to keep being more aggressive.”

Despite what the box score reflects, Ntilikina has been working on his game we’re sure to see him blossom more as his sophomore year didn’t go as expected.
In the coming weeks, we’ll get to see the young guys on the team play more, which is something the fans have been wanting to see all season long.
The Knicks play the Thunder tomorrow night at 7:30 PM, ET
