Overview
- Head coach Mike Brown, speaking after Tuesday’s 121-116 win over the Pelicans, told SNY that McBride has advanced to scrimmaging.
- The guard went through his usual 6:15 pregame workout before the game, which reporters said signaled he could be close to a comeback.
- He remained on the injury report and did not play against New Orleans.
- Brown has not set a return date and said clearance depends on how McBride’s body responds to live reps.
- McBride had sports-hernia surgery on February 6 and averaged 12.9 points with 42% three-point shooting in 35 games, a level that boosts New York’s bench defense and scoring.
