The best element of the alternative #Knicks floor is something almost everyone can’t see: the retired numbers down the sideline in front of celebrity row. pic.twitter.com/bUv9eqrUNQ6:59 PM

The Pelicans are out of town all week, so if you’re looking to get out of the cold and watch some hoops, I recommend heading to the Lakefront.
@UNOPrivateers play tonight at 7 and Saturday at 4.

Tom Thibodeau called Herb Jones “a terrific basketball player.”
Rookie’s offensive numbers have crept up recently. Jones is averaging 14.4 points (53.8% FG) (45.7% 3, 3.2 attempts) since Dec. 26. Scored in double figures in 10 of 11 games. – 6:11 PM
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Devonte’ Graham’s status is still uncertain for tonight’s game at New York. He was listed as questionable. Willie Green said Graham will warm up and a decision will be made. Graham has started every game since Nov. 24 – 6:07 PM
Jake Madison @NOLAJake
Still not feeling good but gonna try and record a podcast after tonight’s game. Beating the Knicks is always enjoyable – 6:07 PM
Andrew Lopez @_Andrew_Lopez
Devonte Graham will go out and warm up and he’ll see if he can go after that, Willie Green says.
Graham is questionable. – 6:02 PM

Tom Thibodeau on #Pelicans rookie starting forward: “Herb Jones is a terrific basketball player. (For) people that don’t know him well, he’s very, very good.” – 5:50 PM
Jim Eichenhofer @Jim_Eichenhofer
Tom Thibodeau on #Pelicans: “Valanciunas and Ingram are very dynamic players. Valanciunas has evolved, adding the 3 and he’s always been a load in the post, very skilled. Ingram is special. A guy we can’t overlook is Hart. He’s a tough matchup, a physical player.” – 5:49 PM
Marc Berman @NYPost_Berman
Thibodeau said Cam Reddish will play “any day now.” – 5:47 PM
Fred Katz @FredKatz
Tom Thibodeau says Cam Reddish is “pretty close” to returning but still no specific timetable on when he could be back from the ankel injury. – 5:47 PM

📅 On this day in 1988, the Sonics’ Xavier McDaniel established career highs for points (41), rebounds (19), and steals (6) in a win over the Knicks.
He’s the only player to record at least 40p/15r/5s in a game for the franchise since the NBA started tracking steals in 1973-74. pic.twitter.com/qxnw5Nk9iw2:01 PM
