WASHINGTON — New York Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau is treating the NBA In-Season Tournament the same way he approaches other games.
"In season, out of season, any season, I love winning," Thibodeau said. "That's all that matters. Get the win. They're keeping score. Try to win the game."
Jalen Brunson scored 32 points and Immanuel Quickley added 27 to lift the Knicks to a 120-99 victory over Washington on Friday night, eliminating the Wizards from contention in this new tourney. Washington has dropped all three of its games so far in the in-season tournament.
