Knicks’ Bargnani, Calderon likely to return Saturday
The Knicks’ 115-99 blowout loss to the Timberwolves on Wednesday night could be the last time they play without Andrea Bargnani and Jose Calderon.
The Knicks are laying the groundwork not only for Bargani to make his season debut Saturday against the winless Sixers but also for Calderon to join him.
The Knicks won’t officially practice Thursday, but Calderon and Bargnani are expected to conduct a 3-on-3 scrimmage with Derek Fisher bringing in some younger players to participate.
Calderon said he expects to be cleared for contact by doctors Thursday.
