Fairly early into the season, on Nov. 14, Kristaps Porzingis — the one time savior of the New York Knicks, at least in the eyes of fans — returns to Madison Square Garden wearing a Dallas Mavericks’ uniform.
He can expect to feel the, um, “love” of Knicks fans.
And Knicks rookie R.J. Barrett wants to add to that, as he said in a Bleacher Report live chat with fans.
In a B/R chat earlier today, Knicks rookie RJ Barrett is asked who he would most like to posterize.

“I know who I really wanna say but I’m not gonna. Let’s go with Porzingis.” pic.twitter.com/YvW1GKm1RO
I want to know: who does he really want to dunk on but will not say? Zion Williamson? Going back in history to Jordan?
Against Porzingis he will get his chance. That said, it’s not easy to get up and over the 7'3" unicorn, but guys have done it. Right Dwight Howard?
