Donte DiVincenzo receives high praise from Stephen Curry

Donte DiVincenzo is starting a new chapter in his career after signing a four-year, $47 million deal with the New York Knicks this offseason. The 26-year-old shooting guard is trying to cultivate the defensive identity being restored in New York.

Four-time NBA champion and former Warriors teammate Stephen Curry spoke to SNY about DiVincenzo and what he brings to the New York Knicks, saying, “It’s all about basketball, it’s all about winning. He brings great energy to the locker room.”

Donte followed only Curry and his “Splash Brother” Klay Thompson in 3-point percentage for the Warriors last season, while also contributing defensive ends.

Curry also added: “He knows how to play. You can tell. He had big time wins in college and the Knicks got a good one. After an injury, Divencenzo chose Golden State as the perfect catalyst to show the NBA what he is still capable of. With runs being a spark on offense and making timely defensive stops, every notion points to him as a great addition to the New York Knicks.
