Before the season started, no one thought we would be speaking about the Knicks rookies when we have a championship roster featuring Jalen Brunson, Karl-Anthony Towns, Mikal Bridges & OG Anunoby. However, given injuries to key players, opportunities have allowed the rookies to get more playing time and showcase their abilities. Ariel Hukporti was one of the rookies for NY that has benefited from NY’s current roster construction and he looks like he wants to maximize his time with the team. He was recently spotted working on his game with Karl-Anthony Towns, one of the best shooting bigs in the league. Hukporti is clearly looking to make an impact and become the permanent backup center for NY... Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!
