Knicks rookie Kristaps Porzingis has surprised pretty much everyone this season, averaging 14 points, nearly 8 rebounds, and 2 blocks per game. I don’t care what Phil Jackson saw in the 20-year-old, nobody was expecting THIS much, THIS early.
Anyone who can drop 3-pointers from Steph Curry range and dunk over crowds of people is a god damn freak. Or a unicorn, as Kevin Durant would prefer to call him.
We all know @kporzee is a unique basketball player, but KD just compared him to a unicorn.

Whatever works. He’s definitely a rare breed. Just look at this dude.
Of all the impressive aspects of his game, I don’t think anyone expected to see such fire. So yeah, upon further review…
It appears Kevin Durant may be on to something.
