New York Knicks rookie Landry Fields has been more than a pleasant surprise this year. With the additions of Amare Stoudemire and Ray Felton, Fields earned a starting spot at Madison Square Garden, straight out of training camp.
After 51 games, the Knicks are poised to make the playoffs for the first time in ... well, no one can remember. That's how long it's been.
In those games, Fields is averaging 10 points, 7.2 rebounds, 2 assists and a steal per game. He's shooting 51 percent from the floor and 77% from the foul line.
He's also become the glue on the team ... a fantastic team player, being compared by one Knicks executive to a young John Havlicek (you young guys, click on this link to learn more about Havlicek ... a Hall of Famer who won 8 NBA titles with the Celtics).
So, what other reason do you have to become a Landry Fields fan?
He's a funny guy, too. Check this out.
