Knicks breathe against harmless Kings | NBA

Not always comfortable facing opponents with a weaker record than them, the Knicks took the bull by the horns from the start of the meeting. Evan Fournier did not hesitate to stick 16 points in the first quarter, and the Kings pedaled in the semolina despite the instructions and the numerous stoppages of Alvin Gentry. But with so few talents in his ranks, the technician does with the means at hand, somehow. The Bockers have a rather polished game, with a Julius Randle who turns into an effective passer (4 caviars) and the locals are logically in the lead at the break (54-41). The Californians' offense relies on Tyrese Haliburton and… Davion Mitchell, and the defense does not compensate for Sacto's scoring weakness.

Hakeem Olajuwon: “Alperen Sengun already has all the basics” | NBA

His leaders had promised him that he would be entitled to private sessions with Hakeem Olajuwon, and it's done!

"We were finally able to get together, and it was great" explained Hakeem Olajuwon to the local press. "You know, his coach in Turkey told me he was a big fan of me, and he already has all the basi...
