Stupor last night in Washington. While he was the last player on the Knicks roster who has not yet played a single minute this season, Evan Fournier came into play last night, at the end of the… first quarter. How does he say Grandpa again? Oh yes, “it’s going to snow like hell”.
But what could have happened in Tom Thibodeau’s head to make him bring Evan Fournier into a basketball game? Tom Tibodeau who we said would bring in onlookers, the girl from the hot dog stand or even Ed the grocer before Vavane. Our best investigators are on the spot but what we can see this morning is that the second favorite bald man in French sport has FINALLY unlocked his 2023-24 counter.
The absences of Quentin Grimes and RJ Barrett combined with the fact that the Knicks were playing against a bunch of clowns (we say it in all friendship eh) in any case allowed Evan to set foot on one of the wonderful floors of the In-Season Tournament , to stay there for 16 minutes in total, and it’s already an event. 1/6 shooting (0/4 from the parking lot) for 2 points, 1 rebound, 1 assist and 1 steal. The stats are obviously incidental and we will monitor the headlines of certain media (“Evan Fournier lynched on the networks after his performance in Washington”), and all we will remember is that Vavane has come back to life, that the Knicks won easily and that the mayor of New York in 2023 is officially called Jalen Brunson. And if nothing says that Thibs’ “gift” will or will not be a one shotlet’s just be happy to know that the Knicks coach remembers the existence of the French player, that’s something.
His last official match with the Knicks dates back to April 9, his last official match dates back to September with the French team. Evan Fournier is back, perhaps he has already left elsewhere but it doesn’t matter, last night Evan took off his jogging pants, the emotions.
