Brandon Knight, who finished eighth in Rookie of the Year voting, appears to be doing his best to play better next season. The above photos show a Knight and Jermaine Taylor (a former Central Florida player who’s spent time with the Houston Rockets and Sacramento Kings) working with trainer Stan Remy. They were practicing near Miami at the Hallendale High School gym, which is not air-conditioned, so that probably explains Knight’s sweat-drenched shirt.
"We train everyday no matter what’s going on,” Knight said through a publicist. “Weekends. Holidays. Mother’s Day. We take time to spend with our families, but in order to get to the next level on the court, there are no days off."
