## Key points

- McBride’s improved shooting may change the Knicks’ trade plans.
- He made 14 of 30 three-pointers across six games.
- Tyrese Haliburton remains out with a hamstring injury.

## Summary

Miles McBride has rebounded from a slow start to the season, improving his shooting and becoming a more useful option for the Knicks. His recent form could affect plans to trade him for a centre, especially as his contract is expiring and the team may struggle to re-sign him while staying below the NBA’s second salary cap threshold.

Across his first five games, McBride averaged 6.4 points on 35.7 per cent shooting; over the next six, he averaged 9.2 points on 51.3 per cent shooting, including 14-for-30 from three-point range. He hit five three-pointers in Wednesday’s 115-107 loss to Cleveland, while his minutes have risen amid Mikal Bridges’ struggles. Indiana’s Tyrese Haliburton will miss Friday’s NBA Cup game with a hamstring injury and is expected to be out for at least 10 more days; he could return for the teams’ 22 November meeting in New York.
