The New York Knicks did not beat the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night, but they did get Landry Shamet back from the shoulder injury that had been keeping him out of the action since late November. After the game, Knicks head coach Mike Brown praised Shamet as being one of the team's two best on-ball defenders. If there was any doubt about Shamet keeping his rotation spot upon his return from injury, Brown took it away in San Francisco.
Brown says Shamet, McBride are NY's best defenders on the ball
Brown described Shamet and teammate Miles McBride as the team's "best on-ball defenders," adding some even more specific praise for the veteran in the wake of his return.
