Kuzminskas tweeted out a message to the Knicks and their fans. He'll be busy this summer playing for Lithuania in the Rio Olympics, but he wants the Five Boroughs to know that he's coming:

Enjoy it now, Jonas, cuz our man Mindaugas gonna be out for Raptor blood! Kuzminskas v Valanciunas: Dawn of Atlantic Division Justice.
As for the Knicks still in the United States, the time has come to get back to work! Oh, my bad ... they're already at work.
