Kevin Knox, Allonzo Trier, Knicks Duo Is ‘Going To Be Good’ Says Team Captain

Allonzo Trier and Kevin Knox are both living their best lives as Knicks rookies.

Trier, an undrafted rookie out of the University of Arizona, this summer, signed a two year, $7 million deal with the orange and blue.

Trier signed a two-way contract with both the New York Knicks and the Knicks’ NBA G League G-League affiliate, Westchester Knicks.

“‘Zo has been constant force for us,” Knicks co-captain, Lance Thomas told me.

“You know, playing with a chip on his shoulder ever since he had an opportunity.”

That he did!

In his NBA debut against the Atlanta Hawks, Trier posted15 points on 5 of 9 shooting and hauled in 4 rebounds and 2 blocks, off the bench in the Knicks’ 126–107 win.

He took it to another level in  November, against the New Orleans Pelicans when he posted a career-high 25 points in the Knicks 113-109 win over the Pels.

Kevin Knox has become a scoring machine for the Knicks.

At halftime of Friday night’s gave against the Charlotte Hornets, Knox had 17 points on 7/10 shooting.

“If they keep that up, those boys are going to be good,” said Lance Thomas.
