Knicks, Frank Ntilikina will not play in the G-League

Frank Ntilikina is back with the team after a brief absence due to the NBA’s contact tracing protocols. But he stays out of the rotation. Thibodeau said on Sunday that there are no plans for Ntilikina to go into the G League bubble to get regular minutes with the Westchester Knicks.

“No, not yet,” Thibodeau said when asked if the club had considered sending Ntilikina to the G League. “I think we’ll take a look as we go along. I love that Frank is here. He did a great job; he has a great attitude, a great approach. And even though he’s not playing, he’s adding a lot to our team right now. “
