The New York Knicks are not enjoying the best of times.
During Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, New York center Mitchell Robinson and forward Reggie Bullock were both wearing Robinson's No. 23 on their backs.
Bullock, at least, had his correct No. 25 on the front of his jersey.
Reggie Bullock, No. 25 on the Knicks if you're looking at the front of the jersey.

The embarrassing mistake was noticed by officials, who forced Bullock to exit the game to change to his correct City Edition jersey.
Lmaooo. Clyde wanted to flame these so bad. You can tell. Listen to him. “What are these jerseys, Mike?” pic.twitter.com/8MMh6W1Jsd
