Iman Shumpert plays well off bench
Iman Shumpert - G - New York Knicks
Feb. 10, 2012 - 10:15 AM ET

Iman Shumpert came off the bench for 17 points, four rebounds, an assist, three steals and a 3-pointer on 6-of-11 shooting in 37 minutes in Wednesday's win.

He's playing some small forward with Carmelo Anthony sidelined and should continue to see heavy minutes for a couple more weeks. Bill Walker (5 points, 6 boards) and Jared Jeffries (2 points, 2 rebounds) started, but Shumpert looks like the player to own until Melo returns from his groin injury.
