I almost didn’t do this one, because it’s only 12 points for a former lottery pick, but I had a bad feeling that I would regret it if I didn’t. It’s very possible that Noah Vonleh never scores more than this the whole season. His career high is only 16, after all.
Plus, it’s his debut with yet another new team.
Extra plus, it brings my video count for the day to a nice even 25.
I would advise Knicks fans not to get hyped at all from this performance. A double-double with a few assists in 16 minutes is nice, and maybe in the next few games he hit some threes to add to the hype, but we’re still talking about Vonleh here. The guy who was supposed to be the next Chris Bosh but can’t stick on a team and looks like an old black scientist whose face got melted by a nuclear fusion experiment gone awry. I’d rate Isaiah Hicks as having more potential, personally.
