During a recent appearance on The Breakfast Club, Knicks reserve guard Jose Alvarado lamented the lack of sportsmanship shown by Wembanyama following Game 5 of the Finals.

“I’ve got mixed emotions. I’m a competitor too, but also I stare my enemies down,” Alvarado said. “I look forward to them, I shake their hand. Obviously, it’s a game. You don’t like the moment, you lost probably the biggest game of your career, but you’re going to have more moments.

“And I feel like the way he did it was a little too crazy for me because I loved how he competes during the game. Obviously, people didn’t like how he was being aggressive, but bro, we fighting for something. Between the lines, I feel like anything is cool. Outside the lines, shake your hand, you know, shake hands and call it what it is.”

More to come.
