On a night the Knicks got triple-doubles from two players for the first time in franchise history, the game ball went to a rookie with two points in three minutes.<\/p>\n
It was a long and arduous road for Kevin McCullar Jr., who was sidelined for roughly a year with a knee injury before making his NBA debut in Tuesday\u2019s 128-113 victory over the Mavericks.<\/p>\n
The 56th overall pick in last year\u2019s draft was then handed the game ball by Josh Hart, who broke Clyde Frazier\u2019s record for most Knicks triple-doubles in a season but had a good reason to hand the rock to McCullar.<\/p>\n
\u201cFor me, that\u2019s an easy decision,\u201d Hart said. \u201cThat record is cool and a blessing, but at the end of the day that record\u2019s going to get broken at some point. Hopefully, later rather than sooner. But that\u2019s going to get broken. Getting your first NBA points, nobody can take that away from you. It\u2019s important that he had that, got the game ball for that. That\u2019s an easy decision for me.\u201d<\/p>\n
McCullar, a 24-year-old wing out of Kansas, was grateful for the ball and the moment.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s been rough, but I kept my head on straight. Everybody has been supporting me here and I\u2019m just glad that I\u2019m back playing now,\u201d McCullar said, adding, \u201cAdversity makes you who you are and everybody goes through it in different ways of life. \u2026 Growing up, that\u2019s all I\u2019ve known is playing basketball.\u201d<\/p>\n
McCullar was a late addition to Tuesday\u2019s active list \u2014 the first time he cracked the NBA roster.<\/p>\n
Mitchell Robinson remains restricted from playing in both games of back-to-backs, leaving the center as a DNP on Tuesday against the Mavericks.<\/p>\n
Officially, Robinson, who sat 10 months following ankle surgery, was on the injury report for injury management. <\/p>\n
The expectation is he will play Wednesday night against the Clippers. <\/p>\n
It was the third time Robinson missed one game of a back-to-back set. <\/p>\n
With four more on the schedule, Tom Thibodeau offered little on whether restrictions will be lifted.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re watching, monitoring how he\u2019s progressing,\u201d Thibodeau said. \u201cThere are certain guidelines we\u2019re trying to follow and then we\u2019ll go from there. So we\u2019ll see how it goes.\u201d<\/p>\n
Robinson has also operated on a steadily easing minutes restriction since returning.<\/p>\n
Miles McBride missed his second straight game with a groin contusion, an injury he sustained in Wednesday\u2019s loss to the Spurs.<\/p>\n
Nevertheless, McBride played 36 minutes the following day in Charlotte. <\/p>\n
Then the injury was severe enough to keep him out of consecutive games.<\/p>\n
Thibodeau deflected when asked how that happened.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust day to day,\u201d the coach said. \u201cJust see how he\u2019s responding.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
