Shumpert's struggles continue on Friday
Iman Shumpert - G - New York Knicks
Jan. 28, 2012 - 2:20 AM ET
Iman Shumpert continued to struggle on Friday against the Heat, scoring five points on 2-of-6 shooting (including a three) with one rebound, two assists, and one steal in 20 minutes.
The Knicks have drastically overhauled their offense over the past three games, with tonight's contest being a 3-point shootout as Mike D'Antoni felt he couldn't win without a historic effort from beyond the arc. Prior to that, the Knicks moved to a motion offense that the media hasn't picked up on yet, and it makes sense that the rookie would suffer with the ball not in his hands as much. Feel free to drop him for a hot free agent, but we really like his chances of being a productive player down the road.
