NBA Fans React To Shocking Exchange Between Donte DiVincenzo And Knicks Coach

On Sunday evening, the Minnesota Timberwolves faced off against the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan.

While it was only the preseason, a lot of eyes were on the game due to the fact that the Knicks and Timberwolves made a big trade earlier this month.

After the 115-110 victory for the Knicks, there was an intriguing exchange between DiVincenzo and Rick Brunson.
