The New York Knicks are 25-14 after Sunday night's win over the Trail Blazers. Josh Hart returned from the sprained ankle that had kept him out for weeks, getting right back to the team's starting lineup.

Kolek has come through in big moments for the Knicks this season, from the NBA Cup to Christmas Day. Would the Knicks be optimizing their championship hopes over the next few seasons if they used the second-year guard to flip Guerschon Yabusele into Jose Alvarado?
