The Boeheim brothers have moved from Syracuse to Manhattan the past two months to hoop, working out twice a day.
Both Boeheims, who played together this past season at Syracuse for their father, Jim Boeheim, have worked out for the Knicks.
“They’re getting an opportunity,” Jim Boeheim, the legendary Syracuse coach, told The Post. “They worked hard all their life. They’ll do workouts and see where they stand in the whole picture. It’s fun for them. “I love basketball more than I ever have right now,’’ Jimmy Boeheim said after his workout with the Knicks. “I’m so into it, there’s no way I can give it up right now. Whatever basketball throws at me, I’m ready and will attack it with all I got and continue to have fun and love the game.”Meanwhile, Buddy led the ACC in scoring this past season at 19.2 points per game for the Orange. In his four seasons, Buddy Boeheim shot 36.2 percent from 3-point range.
There’s a strong sibling rivalry between the Boeheim brothers, though both would consider going overseas together to the same country if it comes to that. “I’m proud of what they’ve done,’’ Boeheim said. “And you just don’t know what could happen. The next month will put you on a path short-term. It’s interesting. Miami made the semifinals and you had five guys undrafted.”
Boeheim and Thibodeau both have been assistants on Mike Krzyzewski’s staff for Team USA. But Boeheim is not expecting a call from Thibodeau to grill him on his sons.
