New York Knicks veteran center Enes Kanter is trying to stay positive after dealing with recent frustrations surrounding his spot within the rotation.

Kanter recently lost his starting job to Luke Kornet, and since then, he's had no problems voicing his issues with being on the bench.

However, at this point, he's doing his best to handle this current test due to his love for the franchise.

Here's what Kanter had to say about his current situation, courtesy of Marc Berman of the New York Post:

“I like it here,” Kanter said. “I like the fans here. Lot of good people here. Lot of good teammates. And I’m trying to stay positive, trying to support my teammates. All I can do right now, it’s a test and it’s definitely one of the hardest tests of my career. I’ve just got to stay positive.

“I do love New York. I’ve got no problem with New York. I’ve got no problem with the team, the organization or the fans. I love the media. [But] I want to play.”

There's nothing unusual about Kanter's desire to want to play more and perhaps he'll get an opportunity to return to the starting lineup at some point this season.

New York simply hasn't been able to find any momentum over the past month, with Knicks head coach David Fizdale's squad losing 13 of their last 15 games to sit at 9-28 overall on the season.

They'll try to snap their seven-game losing streak when they visit the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night.
