Knicks' Sasha Vujacic: Not included in team's regular rotation

Vujacic (coach's decision) didn't play in Tuesday's 107-103 win over the Trail Blazers.

Analysis:

Vujacic's existing familiarity with Derek Fisher and Kurt Rambis -- the Knicks' two coaches last season -- may have helped his earn more run while starting 25 games in 2015-16, but he has yet to endear himself to new head man Jeff Hornacek. After averaging 14.5 minutes per game last season, Vujacic has played no more than 13 minutes in any of his eight appearances so far, and hasn't seen the floor at all in four of the team's last six contests. Expect the veteran shooting guard to remain out of Hornacek's rotation so long as the Knicks' backcourt remains reasonably healthy.
