On the night that Amar’e Stoudemire returned Pheonix, Ray Felton stole the spotlight. Ray produced the first triple-double of his career to lead the Knicks’ 121-96 victory over the Phoenix Suns. Felton produced a #pointgod game with 23 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds to help the Knicks win their 21st game of the year. I’ve been a fan of Felton ever since his days at UNC and although I did not watch him during his tenure with the Bobcats I knew that he was a prototypical NBA point guard since college. At 6’ 2” he defends full court, protects the ball and runs your offense efficiently. This year he has flourished in coach Mike D’Antoni’s run and gun system, especially in the pick and roll with early MVP candidate Amare Stoudemire. Ray Felton hasn’t been one of the NBA’s premiere point guards over the years but it is clear that New York is a great system for him and his 1st career triple-double is worthy of a #pointgod spotlight.
