Kyle Filipowski News: Retreating to bench

Filipowski won't start against the Knicks on Friday.

With Jusuf Nurkic back in action following a one-game absence due to a right rib contusion, Filipowski will slide to the second unit. Over his last five appearances off the bench, the second-year big man has averaged 9.4 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.4 assists in 23.4 minutes per contest.
