Many people commented on the update.

David Resnick: "New York plays three times, including tonight at the Garden, before Westchester's next game on Thursday.

In March, Dadiet played 8 games (7-1) and averaged 16/5/3 on 40/35/86 in 33 mpg.

He has really produced during this extended run after returning from injury."

@dorkasaurus_rex: "Bro been playing out of his mind in the g league.

Really really hoping he can get some minutes, og could use a break too."

@DiehardknicksPC: "Why yall doing Pacome like this? His Uber bill must be outta control"

@TheKnicksChat: "His EZ pass bill has to be through the roof"

@PlayoffBoundNYK: "Give us a Brunson update, we don’t care about this"
