Brazdeikis posted 21 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 11 rebounds and three assists across 38 minutes in Sunday's 111-105 loss to G League Iowa.
EDGE Analysis
Brazdeikis struggled in Saturday's loss to Raptors 905, hitting just three of 14 of his field goals and notching three rebounds. The 2019 second-round pick bounced back well Sunday, leading G League Westchester in both points and rebounds. Through 10 games, he's averaged 20.6 points per contest.

Brazdeikis provided 10 points (3-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds and three assists across 28 minutes in Saturday's 127-115 loss to G League Raptors 905.
EDGE Analysis
Brazdeikis is typically one of G League Westchester's top performers. He averaged 21.9 points per game with a 47.9 field-goal percentage before Saturday's game, so this was a major dropoff for the 22-year-old. Nevertheless, he'll continue to be a fixture in the starting five down the stretch.

Brazdeikis posted 31 points (10-18 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 13 rebounds and three assists across 32 minutes in Tuesday's 123-113 win over G League Lakeland.
EDGE Analysis
These types of performances have been typical for Brazdeikis this season, as he's averaged 22.4 points per game while connecting on 48 percent of field goals. The 22-year-old should at least have a depth role waiting for him with the Knicks after the G League season is over.

Brazdeikis posted 17 points (6-14 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and seven assists in Saturday's 125-118 loss to G League Austin.
EDGE Analysis
Brazdeikis paced G League Westchester in rebounds, and he was one of six players to hit double digits in scoring. The 22-year-old continues to be dominant with the G League affiliate, although his three-point percentage (28.1 percent) is a bit of a letdown.

Brazdeikis posted 24 points (10-20 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-3 FT), eight rebounds and three assists in Wednesday's 123-115 loss to G League Long Island.
EDGE Analysis
Much like last season, Brazdeikis has been G League Westchester's top player so far. He's averaged 24 points, 10.6 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game while hitting 51.4 percent of field goals and 35.6 percent of three-pointers.

Brazdeikis (ankle) played 35 minutes Monday in G League Westchester's 135-117 loss to Rio Grande, finishing with 20 points (8-17 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal.
EDGE Analysis
Brazdeikis had missed Westchester's previous two games with the ankle injury, but the big minutes he received in his return to action Monday suggests his health is no longer much of a concern. The 22-year-old is expected to remain with Westchester at the G League bubble in Orlando through early-to-mid-March before rejoining the Knicks following the NBA All-Star break.

Brazdeikis (ankle) didn't suit up in Thursday's 118-106 win over G league Greensboro, freelance basketball journalist Adam Zagoria reports.
EDGE Analysis
Brazdeikis was electric in the G League opener, producing 28 points and 15 rebounds. He finished second on the team in scoring behind Jared Harper in that contest, and now both players are sidelined with ankle injuries.

Brazdeikis provided 28 points (11-20 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 15 rebounds and four assists in Wednesday's 125-120 win over Fort Wayne.
EDGE Analysis
Brazdeikis started the 2020-21 G League season with authority, leading the team in rebounds and finishing second behind Jared Harper in points. The Knicks aren't ready to commit to the 2019 second-round pick at the NBA level, however, as he has played just four games with the big club this season, totaling seven minutes.

The Knicks assigned Brazdeikis to the G League's Westchester Knicks on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
In his second professional season, Brazdeikis hasn't been able to crack head coach Tom Thibodeau's rotation, appearing in just four of the Knicks' 21 games to date while playing no more than three minutes in any contest. He'll report to the G League bubble in Orlando and should see meaningful run with Westchester throughout February.
