Drafted fourth overall by the Knicks in 2015, Porzingis was named an All-Star by his third NBA season before suffering a torn ACL in February of 2018. He expressed his unhappiness with the Knicks’ direction during his rehab and was shipped to Dallas — essentially in exchange for since-spent cap space and two first-round picks — nearly one year after his injury. And the Garden faithful certainly have not forgotten. “I think that’s just natural, you just deal with it. That’s the league. Guys get traded and there’s always energy when a guy comes back,” Wizards coach Wes Unseld Jr. said. “I think [Porzingis] handled that part fine. I think he’s still working his way back into a rhythm. Missing the better part of a month and a half of games, he’s played a handful now, but he’s still getting his legs under him.
