Knicks' Mikal Bridges wants starters playing fewer minutes
Bridges is not only leading the NBA in total minutes played but is second in minutes per game, just behind teammate Josh Hart, 37.819 to 37.812. OG Anunoby is sixth while Jalen Brunson is 19th and Karl-Anthony Towns is 23rd — all five starters averaging at least 35 minutes per game.
If there's one thing we know about a Tom Thibodeau-coached team it's that he's going to play his starters a ton of minutes.
