Knicks’ Donte DiVincenzo sat in fourth quarter as Miles McBride erupted
NY Post
Miles McBride played the entire fourth quarter Saturday in a breakout postseason performance, which means someone had to be relegated to the bench for those minutes.
That someone was starting guard Donte DiVincenzo, who had a quiet showing in the Game 1 victory against the 76ers.
He finished his first playoff game as a Knick with eight points on 3-for-10 shooting and a minus-23 rating in 24 minutes — none in the fourth quarter.
“That’s who we are, we’re a team. So some nights it’s not your night, it’s someone else’s night,” Tom Thibodeau said after Sunday’s practice. “Everyone sacrifices, and Donte, he’s great. He’s terrific. He’s had a great year for us, and we need him.
“So whatever is gonna give us our best chance to win, that’s what we’re doing.”
DiVincenzo had averaged 34.4 minutes and 19.2 points per game over his final 50 starts after the trade of RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley to Toronto on Dec. 30.
