Knicks loved their first true taste of the Jordan Clarkson experience: ‘F–king amazing’
NY Post
Josh Hart smiled, then broke a rule he’s been trying to set for himself.
How does he describe the Jordan Clarkson experience?
“I don’t really curse anymore, but f–king amazing,” Hart said after the Knicks’ 119-102 win over the Wizards on Monday night at Madison Square Garden. “I love JC, dog. JC is a professional scorer, man. So we want him to go out there and shoot the ball, and want him to be aggressive, want him playing his game. And when he does that, he’s amazing for us. Defensively, he’s been locked in. He’s been playing great defense on the ball, in his shifts, in help, stuff like that. Like I said, I love it.”
The Knicks signed Clarkson in free agency to be a central part of a revamped bench unit they envisioned going from a weakness to a newfound strength.
He has long been known as a spark plug and microwave scorer who will not hesitate to look for his shot — something the Knicks did not have much of off the bench last year. He is a particularly aggressive 3-point shooter, something coach Mike Brown values highly in his system.
It was a rough start to the year for Clarkson, but he seemed to grow comfortable in his new surroundings during the back-to-back home wins over the Bulls and Wizards. He scored 15 points both nights on a combined 11-for-19 shooting from the field and 5-for-11 shooting from 3-point range.
