Frank Ntilikina, Bobby Portis Combine For 40 Bench Points
5 years agoNew York Knicks point guard Frank Ntilikina and forward/center Bobby Portis were big for the team in Tuesday's matchup with the Wizards, sharing the team's leading-scorer honors with 20 points. Ntilikina added 10 assists for a nice double-double, while Portis filled it up with six boards, five dimes and one block. Head coach Mike Miller used his bench guys a lot in the 122-115 loss, and they ended up scoring 66 points. Ntilikina, who shot 6-for-9 from the field and had three treys, took advantage of Elfrid Payton's foul trouble. The Knicks play again on Wednesday against fellow strugglers Atlanta in a meeting of the 23rd and the 28th defenses in the league.
