Former Minnesota Timberwolves coach Tom Thibodeau, now the coach of the New York Knicks, is once again the subject of criticism for risking injury to a star player by playing them in the final minutes of a game that was already decided.

The Knicks connected on just 43.5 percent of its shots and committed 11 turnovers in Sunday's loss to the Celtics. “The versatility, I think, is terrific,” Thibodeau said.

On Sunday afternoon, the New York Knicks fell to the Boston Celtics, 118-105. In the fourth quarter, Karl-Anthony Towns went down with an apparent knee injury and was very clearly in pain.
