Well, it looks like Kevin Knox has well and truly put those early season troubles behind him. There was a chance for Knox to go higher based on what he did this week, but the top 2 were just too good.

Knox had two 20+ Points outings this week against the Sixers and the Hawks. He averaged 19.2 Points and 5.2 Rebounds as he continues to take over the reins of the Knicks offence. Coach Fizdale wants Knox to remain aggressive for the whole game, as the Rookie seems to defer in the 2nd half, but there probably isn't enough mileage in his tank as of now to maintain a high level of aggression throughout the game.

It's safe to say that he is living up to the preseason hype, however, and Knicks fans can be hopeful for the future. As for the near future, Knox has games against the Bucks twice and the Jazz coming up and I'd be surprised if he keeps up this level of play going up against that lot.
