Mohamed Diawara Scores 10 Points, Returns to Knicks' Rotation with Strong Performance

Mohamed Diawara contributed 10 points (2-3 3Pt) for the New York Knicks in their commanding 127-98 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday night. The rookie, who has been alternating rotation spots, returned to his pre-All-Star break form, posting a game-best plus-25 in just 22 minutes. This strong performance arrived after three straight games of sparse playing time, with Diawara stepping into the ninth rotation spot. He emphasized the importance of staying ready, stating, "First year, I’m a rookie, so everything is not going to be great. So I just have to stay ready and wait until my name gets called.”
