A new hour here.

Another Jordan Clarkson three ball for you from last night's Knicks game. Towns Avarado. Shannon. Thought about it. Kicks it out. Clarkson puts up a three. Pucks him and Jordan Clarkson. Having himself a night here. He's got 24 points now at 20 minutes. That's Mike Breen on MSG. Clarkson, the spark plug for the Knicks in last night's game in Salt Lake City.

Most action he has seen in terms of minutes played since Christmas Day as he ended up with a season eye, 27 points across 26 minutes.

He was 10 and 15 from the field, including a trio of three balls.

And the Knicks scored 78 points after halftime cruising past the Jazz 134, 117. So a big night for Clarkson in his return to Utah, where he played his last five-plus seasons, and you could tell how well-liked he was and still is there because he hugged just about everyone in the building after the game to the point where Mike Breen and Monica McNutt had to vamp while they waited for Clarkson to get to his post game one-on-one.

Back of the line, Mike.

Oh, man, Derek Lippinski trying to get him over to Bill Pito.

Maybe he just wants to avoid Bill.

Possibly.

Jay and Johnson and Clarkson

had formed a really nice friendship.

Even the mascot.

This is mascot.

All right, now let's go to Bill Pito.

All right.

It took him a while to get over there.

The owner came down.

He did.

He heard Mike there.

He hugged the mascot right before he got to Bill Pito.

I know you loved with a mascot.

Yeah. He's a fan favorite out there still in Utah, which is kind of cool. So he does this thing with Bill Pito talking about his big game and being welcome back. And then as they wrapped up, it's always next man up, man. We're just trying to compete and win a game. Gordon, congratulations on a special night. Thanks for stopping by. My man. Thank you, Bob. Mike and Monica back to you, and Mike, he was not avoiding me. He's just very popular here. I'm sorry, well. Well, it's all about being a professional. And they all were, and they got the job done, and he gave a nice interview, and away they went. So we mentioned most minutes for Clarkson in almost three months. He hasn't fallen out of the rotation, but the minutes have definitely been cut in recent weeks. And it turns out we have to credit Nick's assistant Mo Cheeks for Clarkson's presence in last night's game, and Mike Brown was sure to do that afterwards. Mo said to me earlier today, he said, we've got to find a way to throw Jordan in the game
