Coach Mike Brown is deploying heavy preseason minutes for the Knicks' starters as the team recovers from its late start to training camp. Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart led the team with 13 points apiece in Thursday's 111-109 setback to the Wizards, logging approximately 20 minutes each. The two guards have now appeared in exhibitions against the Wizards and 76ers, with Brown signaling his intention to utilize them in at least one more preseason game. Brunson shot 6-for-12 while Hart connected on 5 of 8; Mikal Bridges scored two points, and Karl-Anthony Towns added eight with three turnovers, per New York Post. Andre Drummond provided nine rebounds off the bench in 20 minutes, and James Wiseman performed solidly in limited time in his bid for a roster spot.
