Knicks Notes: Miles McBride in final stages of rehab, NY's offensive tweaks helping Karl-Anthony Towns
Following the Knicks' 121-116 win over the Pelicans on Tuesday night, coach Mike Brown gave an update on Miles McBride and how he's adjusted to making Karl-Anthony Towns more comfortable on offense.
Miles McBride is in the final stages of his rehab from sports hernia surgery. McBride has been scrimmaging with some of the Knicks ’ younger players and coaches recently. Before Tuesday’s game, McBride was seen on the court doing his traditional pre-game warm-up routine.
All of these signs point to McBride returning to the court in the coming days. The Knicks have nine regular season games left in the season. Their next game is in Charlotte on Thursday, the first of a four-game trip that concludes in Memphis next Wednesday.
McBride joined the team on its recent West Coast trip. I’d assume he is with them on this upcoming trip. Whether he returns during the road trip or shortly thereafter, you should see McBride back on the court very soon.
He has been out since Jan. 28. At the time, he was sidelined with an ankle injury.
