Bruce Brown Misses Final Roster Spot as Knicks Choose James Wiseman

New York Knicks head coach Mike Brown praised Bruce Brown for his toughness, versatility, and ability to guard positions one through four while initiating offense. Despite fitting well with the team's concepts and draft class, Bruce Brown was passed over for the Knicks' final roster spot in favor of 25-year-old center James Wiseman. Coach Brown cited Wiseman's unique size, athleticism, and vertical rim threat as the deciding factor for the open roster opening.
