New York Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau has stated that the primary reason behind star player OG Anunoby is the limited options available at his disposal.

The 26-year-old has played 86 minutes back-to-back in the last couple of matches. Thibodeau was questioned by the media in a recent press conference where he stated that his decisions are taken considering whatever resources he has at his disposal.

“Sometimes that’s what you called for so you do what you think is called for,” he said. “In the end, the minutes will be the minutes are. Right now, we’ve got to find our way as we’re adjusting. So, find a way to win & then build our rhythm.

“Concentrate on our improvement take some time. That’s where we are. Just go day by day & some guys are playing big minutes (because) we’re shorthanded and that’s what happens.”

Nick, in their recent outing, managed to defeat Washington Wizards on their home court with a score of 113-109. The star of the show for the winning team was Jalen Brunson who ended up producing 41 points including eight rebounds and eight assists.

Anunoby had a decent day at the office as he ended up registering 19 points for the visitors including seven rebounds and one assist.
