In a recent statement, Brown expressed his desire to play for the Knicks, specifically highlighting his interest in being coached by Tom Thibodeau.

Brown emphasized his commitment to hard work, stating, "I am a dog. I play extremely hard on both ends of the floor. I can do just about whatever [Thibodeau] needs me to do," as shared with the New York Post.

This season, he is averaging 12.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 2.9 assists over 35 games.
