New York Knicks Rumors

Towns acknowledged after Wednesday's win over the Cavaliers that he's dealing with a quadriceps injury, but that he played through it because "he didn't want to disappoint the fans," according to Vincent Goodwill of ESPN.com. "I've been banged up, and I really haven't gotten a chance to practice or play in the last two preseason games," Towns said. "I didn't want to disappoint the fans. It's not something that's easy to deal with, [but] we made it happen tonight."

Clarkson is motivated to play for a contending team again, according to Stefan Bondy of The New York Post. "That's something you chase. That's a different high, man, if you want to put it like that," he said. "The level of detail, every play matters."

Robinson could be the fifth starter for the Knicks on Opening Night ahead of Josh Hart, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic speculates.

Brunson is adjusting to a new pace since head coach Mike Brown employs a higher-tempo offense compared to his predecessor Tom Thibodeau, according to Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News.

Knicks head coach Mike Brown praised Yabusele and what he can bring to the table during an interview with James Edwards III of The Athletic earlier this week. "When you get drafted and don't make it, it can do a lot of things to you mentally," Brown said. "Seeing that process tells you a lot about him as a person. That's a vastly competitive spirit and competitive nature that I'm looking for when it comes to being a New York Knick."

Knicks head coach Mike Brown praised Clarkson and what he can bring to the table during an interview with James Edwards III of The Athletic earlier this week. "He's a professional scorer," Brown said of Clarkston. "Especially one coming off the bench, it means he knows how to play the game. He's not just scoring. That's what I like about him - he's a capable passer. I like the mindset that he has. You want guys who aren't afraid of the moment, who are willing to take the shot and go get it."

Robinson said Thursday that he's unsure if he'll play in back-to-back sets this season, Kristian Winfield of the New York Daily News reports.
