New York Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau complimented Karl-Anthony Cities forward of a preseason matchup in opposition to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Thibodeau praised Cities work in each the NBA and with the Dominican Republic Nationwide Crew.
“Watching the progress he’s made all through his profession, he’s as gifted as they arrive,” Thibodeau mentioned.
“If you have a look at an offensive participant, notably a giant, the talent set that he has, I feel all of us noticed, to win the 3-point contest and stuff like that, there’s nothing he can’t do offensively. He has continued to get higher I feel. He had some accidents to take care of. I watched him play in FIBA [the World Cup, for the Dominican Republic], he performed very well there. He’s actually, actually gifted.”
Sources point out that Thibodeau would welcome teaching Cities, if given the chance. If Cities have been to ever hit the commerce market, New York could be among the many bidders to commerce for the veteran middle.
