Doug McDermott: Runs with first unit

Both McDermott and Enes Kanter, who both came over from Oklahoma City in the
Carmelo Anthony deal, worked with the starters at Sunday’s intra-squad
scrimmage, potentially hinting that the Knicks may move veteran Courtney Lee to
the bench. While Lee is a superior defender to McDermott, the Creighton product
offers more size and is a superior three-point shooter. Expect the pair to
compete for the starting spot throughout the preseason, and it’s certainly
possible that both players could be given opportunities to start once the
regular season rolls around.
