News · Posting and Toasting · 19hThree winners and three losers from Knicks’ first two preseason games

The Knicks are 0-2 in the preseason, which nobody cares about, but Posting and Toasting has already sorted the early winners and losers, and Jalen Brunson is in the first group, looking like midseason form on a surgically repaired wrist after going 1-for-6 from three against the Wizards. Landry Shamet is the other headline winner, putting up 11.5 points in 13.5 minutes while hitting 53.3% from the field and 50% from deep. The losers list starts with Pacôme Dadiet, who has nine points in 30 minutes on 28.6% shooting, and Miles McBride, who is at 3 points a night on 18.2% from the field and 11.1% from three. Bruce Brown, James Wiseman and Jaden Akins are the only camp invitees to play in both games, while Drew Eubanks, Ochai Agbaji and Tony Bradley sat against Washington, so the last roster spot is looking like a three-man race. Andre Drummond rounds out the winners with better pick-and-roll defense than anyone expected, though his finishing around the rim is still a worry.
