Near a back wall of the Knicks facility, Phil Jackson huddled with prized rookie Kristaps Porzingis and talked X’s and O’s.

What was discussed isn’t exactly clear, but Jackson seemed to be talking to the rookie about the proper way to hold the ball when after receiving a pass.

Porzingis appreciated the advice. The rookie says Jackson is “always there, around, always helping with little details, telling me stuff. Who’s a better mentor, a better coach than Phil Jackson? It’s the best place for me to be in now, alongside with him. He can help me with everything.”
