The defensive ability is indeed good, but the Knicks scoring ability at the backcourt is really poor?
6:30am, 2 June 2025【Basketball】
In a previous NBA Eastern Conference Finals G6, the Indiana Pacers, who returned to their home court, defeated the New York Knicks 125-108, locking the total score of the series at 4-2. After this game, the Pacers successfully reached the finals, and they will compete with the Oklahoma City Thunder for the NBA championship this season, while the Knicks stopped in the Eastern Conference Finals.
In this game, Delon Wright, the Knicks' substitute backcourt, was still mixed. Wright played 11 minutes and 44 seconds in the whole game, made 0 of 2 shots, 0 of 2 from outside the three-point line, and 2 of 2 free throws, only 2 points and 1 rebound, with a plus-minus value of -3. Wright's performance on the offensive end is still not ideal, his scoring ability is still seriously insufficient, his feel outside the three-point line is still at a mess, and his performance in passing and organizing offense is also unable to fully play out. Of course, as a defensive gate, Wright has indeed played a good role in the defensive end, and he has also proved that he has quite good defensive abilities. However, Wright doesn't play much time, and his role on the court is therefore relatively limited, and he has no way to provide more help and support to the team.
After joining the Knicks, Wright made a total of 14 appearances in the NBA regular season, averaging 16.4 minutes per game, averaging 4.3 points, 1.4 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks, and 0.6 turnovers and 0.6 fouls. His shooting percentage was 46.9%, three-point shooting percentage was 33.3%, and free throw shooting percentage was 66.7%. During the playoffs, Wright played 6 games in the first 18 games, averaging 8 minutes per game, averaging 1.2 points, 0.3 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.5 steals, and 0.2 blocks, and 0.2 turnovers, shooting percentage of 22.2%, three-point shooting percentage of 16.7%, and free throw shooting percentage of 100%.
Wright actually has some characteristics on the offensive end in the regular season. He not only showed good defensive ability on the defensive end, but also had some characteristics on the offensive end. He can also provide certain help and support to the team. As a result, Wright's playing time was greatly reduced in the playoffs, and it was difficult for him to get into the rotation lineup in the previous two rounds of the series. It was not until the Knicks encountered a huge crisis in this round of the series that Wright began to gradually gain trust. As a result, Wright still played a certain role after entering the rotation lineup, and his performance on the defensive end was also very outstanding. However, the problem is that Wright's scoring ability is really bad. He has caused huge trouble to the team on the offensive end, and his offensive efficiency is simply terrible. We don’t know if the Knicks will leave Wright this summer. Can this player with distinctive characteristics continue to wear the Knicks jersey next season?
