Allonzo Trier isn't just making his case that the New York Knicks need to rip up his two-way contract, like, yesterday.

He's also having fun doing it.

Trier scored a career-high 23 points in the Knicks' win over the Mavericks on Friday, and then retweeted a post reminding everyone that he went undrafted last June by saying "back then they didn't want me."
