Watch: Knicks' Jennings isn't about that sportsmanship life
Adam Hunger / USA TODAY Sports
Brandon Jennings clearly wants to instill some attitude and toughness into his New York Knicks teammates, even if that means turning his nose up at the unwritten code of showing good sportsmanship to the opposition.
Knicks big man Guillermo Hernangomez knocked Rondae Hollis-Jefferson of the Brooklyn Nets to the hardwood Wednesday night on a block attempt late in the fourth quarter with the game's outcome no longer in doubt, extending his hand shortly thereafter to help him up.
Brandon Jennings was having none of that, though, yanking Hernangomez away in order to keep him from aiding a member of the visiting side.
