Report: Amar'e OK with bench role

According to report by ESPN, Amar'e Stoudemire would be willing to accept a role off the bench if that's what is asked of him.

"All he cares about right now is helping the team and winning," said one source, who has been around Stoudemire regularly in recent weeks. "He'd be fine with coming off the bench if that's what they want."

Amar'e is expected to be out for at least another two weeks with a knee injury.

The Knicks improved to 10-4 after their win against Milwaukee on Wednesday.
