Mikal Bridges has been benched for the fourth quarter in three games and is averaging 6.1 points on 30.8% shooting. The defending champion Knicks are 3-4 and 22nd in offense, and Josh Hart is out Wednesday against Chicago with ankle soreness after starting all seven games. Brown says he wants a 10-man rotation and used 12 players against Brooklyn.
"Yeah, he's just got to keep playing. Everybody goes through those ups and downs throughout the course of the season, and obviously, it's the beginning of the season right now, so he's got to find his way." - Mike Brown on Bridges
"I hate saying this — I want to win, I'm going to try to win, but I'm not going to do that to the detriment of our group later on." - Mike Brown
Fantasy angleBridges is a sell-low hold at best; Jordan Clarkson (18 points against Chicago) picks up minutes with Hart out.
