Alec Burks back to Knicks’ second unit?

Thibodeau said he is considering switching Alec Burks back to the second unit — possibly as early as the game Saturday against the Hawks — after Burks started 12 straight games since replacing Walker in late November. “Yeah, I’d like to get the second unit back that was playing really well,” Thibodeau said when asked if he’s considering removing Burks once Barrett is back. “It’s going to be different because [injured guard] Derrick [Rose] is not in there, but that’s been a strength.”
