Leon Rose high on Frakn Ntilikina?

In your previous mailbag you said Damyean Dotson is as good as gone because he doesn’t have an attachment to [Leon] Rose or [GM Scott] Perry. Is the same said for Frank Ntilikina? — Akiva Au contraire. Rose was Ntilikina’s first agent. While they parted ways after his second season amid bruised feelings, the sense is Rose wants to turn the Frenchman into a valuable piece. Rose said of Ntilikina on MSG Network that, “Given the right circumstances, I think [he] can really prosper.’’ Rose was likely referring to a steady role and structured offense. If Tom Thibodeau is hired as coach, he tends to favor defensive-first ballplayers such as the 6-foot-4 point guard.
