The New York Knicks had the day off Wednesday. Today, they get ready to face the Toronto Raptors in their fourth summer league game.
So far, the Knicks summer squad has yet to win a game. They have lost to the Memphis Grizzlies (93-77), Phoenix Suns (99-74) and their most recent matchup was a close one against the Denver Nuggets (85-81).
Despite the losses, however, the Knicks are getting production from a few of the guys in their roster.
Guys like James White, Chris Copeland and Wesley Witherspoon are possible candidates for regular season spots on the bench.
They have also been getting solid contributions from Artsiom Parakhouski. He's a 25-year-old center from Belarus.
So far in the summer league, Parakhouski has averaged just over eight points, close to seven rebounds and two blocks a game.
Copeland is the scoring leader so far in the league. He has averaged just over 13 points a game with four rebounds.
Witherspoon has averaged close to 12 points a game with almost a steal and an assist per game.
If Witherspoon does not make it to the pros this year, White would be the best candidate for a bench role for the Knicks.
He is already on a guaranteed contract. The veteran can play both the forward and guard positions. White has not wowed anybody this summer, but he gets the job done. He has averaged over six points and four rebounds in three starts this summer.
You can catch the Knicks play the Toronto Raptors today at 4 p.m. on MSG Network.
