Kristaps Porzingis is reportedly ready to take a step back from the New York Knicks following a season full of controversy.
A day after ESPN.com's Ian Begley reported Porzingis skipped his exit interview with Phil Jackson and members of the Knicks' front office, The Vertical's Adrian Wojnarowski cited sources Saturday who said "Porzingis is planning a long trip back to Latvia that may not include a return to New York until closer to the start of training camp."
According to Begley, Porzingis grew frustrated over the "dysfunction and drama surrounding the organization."
Wojnarowski confirmed as much and noted problems appear to extend beyond the 21-year-old franchise centerpiece. Citing league sources, Wojnarowski reported Knicks players are "privately fuming that they want no part of the organization’s summer slate of triangle offense regimen at the team’s suburban New York practice facility."
Breh might say fukk it, and never come back to the States. I'm sure he's made enough money to eat forever in Lativia.
the Knicks still have his two year pick up option and a extra year. He'll be good by then. Phil only has one year left on his contract.
