Donte DiVincenzo isn’t stressing over surprise quest for Knicks 3-point history
NY Post
Donte DiVincenzo started this season as a reserve.
He can finish it with the greatest 3-point shooting campaign in Knicks history.
Following his dazzling performance in Saturday’s victory over the Nets, DiVincenzo sits just 18 treys from tying the single-season mark of 241 set by Evan Fournier in 2022.
DiVincenzo told The Post he’s into becoming the Knicks long-distance king — “Hell yeah, obviously I want to be in the record books” — but it can’t be a focus.
“I don’t think about it. Obviously I’m aware of it, but I don’t go into the game going, ‘How many do I need?’ ” DiVincenzo said. “That’s for you guys to talk about, that’s for everybody else to have fun with. But when you start doing that — there’s basketball karma, basketball gods. That’s not something [I want to mess with].
“There’s energy to basketball. So just play the right way and good things will come.”
