On Sept. 30, 2025, assistant coach Mike Brown said the New York Knicks will adopt a revised approach to playing time, aiming to distribute minutes differently than in recent seasons.
Brown’s comments come after sustained criticism of former head coach Tom Thibodeau, whose heavy use of starters drew concern about player fatigue. While specific details were not disclosed, Brown indicated the staff has finalized a plan designed to ease workloads across the roster.
The shift marks the organization’s first public acknowledgment of changes to minute management since Thibodeau’s departure.
