The Knicks should start getting first round pick Wilson Chandler some more playing time. He has played in only 13 games (1 start) this season and he is averaging 7.1 minutes, 3.3 points, 1.4 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game. He is only shooting 40% from the floor and 42.9% from the free throw line this season. It’s hard to get into a rhythm when you are sitting on the bench all of the time. The Knicks have nothing to lose by giving Chandler some playing time to see what he can do.
