Even "Godzingis" needs his basketball blessing from the NBA's Answer.

Following the New York Knicks' 104-89 victory over the visiting Chicago Bulls Thursday night at Madison Square Garden, sophomore big man Kristaps Porzingis crossed paths with Hall of Fame guard Allen Iverson outside of the team's locker room.

"You're headed in the right direction," Iverson told the 21-year-old Latvian. "You're doing everything the right way. I love to see it."

Porzingis wasn't in the lineup for New York Thursday due to a sore left Achilles, an injury which forced him to the sidelines for three games back in December.
