The New York Knicks reserve power forward Obi Toppin resumed playing limited minutes Saturday night with the return of Julius Randle to the team’s lineup.
“I thought Obi gave us really good minutes,” Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau said after Game 1. “We got hit with some things tonight. Some of the silver lining was the last month, we had different guys out, so those other guys had to step in.
“Julius – we knew, first game back, his rotations were gonna be different. I thought Obi gave us really good minutes. I thought that was huge.”
