A former member of the Golden State Warriors has been at the center of the New York Knicks’ run through the postseason. When the Knicks took a 2-0 lead over the Indiana Pacers in the second round of the Eastern Conference playoffs, the ex-Golden State guard helped with a 28-point outburst.
Donte DiVincenzo continued his impressive playoff campaign with 28 points on 10-of-20 shooting from the field to go along with six boards, four assists and a steal in 44 minutes against the Pacers. DiVincenzo caught fire from beyond the arc, drilling a game-high six 3-pointers on Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden.
