New York Knicks forward Kevin Knox been working hard this offseason. Strength, technique, and conditioning are the focal points of Kevin Knox’s summer workout routine.
Former Hall Of Fame forward Bernard King explained the importance of running the floor and attacking the basket to Kevin Knox. He told Knox to attack the rim when driving the lane instead of fading off to the side trying to avoid contact. Knox was also notified that strength and conditioning will help him attack the basket strongly, which will create fouls on his opponents often. If Knox plan on taking his game to new heights by following the blueprint of Bernard King, most improved player surely wouldn’t be out the equation for the youngster next season. It would be very clever for Knox to model his game after the former Knick great in Bernard King.
The transition game for Kevin Knox is crucial. If Kevin Knox improves the way he runs the floor, every other Knick teammate would benefit especially Dennis Smith Jr. DSJ would now have a wing player to run alongside him on a blazing speed fast break. Knicks would put more pressure on opponents when attacking a fast break especially with a player of Kevin Knox’s size taking long strides to the rim for either a finish or a pass to an open teammate.
Overall, Kevin Knox’s potential is through the roof. The 6’9″tall 20-year-old possess the length and touch to be a very intriguing player for a very long time. The New York Knicks definitely have more work to do in terms of rebuilding the roster. Therefore, developing Kevin Knox the best way possible is important for the franchise.
