Allonzo Trier has made a name for himself — literally — by being a dangerous isolation player. However, there is a balance between taking advantage of one-on-one play and moving the ball quickly in coach David Fizdale’s system.

Trier struggled with that as a rookie, but the Knicks coach said Trier’s trying to change his ways — and his nickname “IsoZo.’’ That’s also his Twitter handle.

“This year he hasn’t done it,’’ Fizdale said of holding the ball and going in iso mode. “I think he’s [had] two possessions where he had maybe taken multiple dribbles in a possession. He doesn’t want the nickname and he wants to change that perception of him as a guy that holds [the ball]. He wants to be just Allonzo Trier. He’s been going about it the right way and he’s been showing that in practice.”

“He doesn’t like that nickname anymore. He’s done with it.”

The Post reported in April some teammates were concerned about Trier being too selfish and not hitting open men. Fizdale’s mantra is not to hold the ball more than a second without passing. But he knows Trier is an electric one-on-one player — the best on the club — and wants him to still taking advantage without being a ball-stopper.

“He brings an element that probably no one else brings on the team from a standpoint of he can really break you down off the dribble and he’s a good shooter from 3,’’ Fizdale said. “I’ve been really happy with the way he’s gone about it, when he was playing and when he wasn’t playing. He’s been a good teammate to guys, and when he got his opportunity, he really played well.”

According to a source, Trier was unhappy with how many minutes he played in the first three preseason games. He did not play at all against Atlanta and played just eight minutes in the preseason opener.

But Trier finally got his mojo going in the preseason finale against New Orleans, scoring 14 points in 16 minutes. Trier, however, missed two wide open 3-pointers in the final seconds that would’ve given the Knicks the victory. Still, it looks like he’s cracked the crowded rotation for Wednesday’s season opener in San Antonio.

As expected, the Knicks exercised the third-year option on lottery pick Kevin Knox. … Fizdale said he wants to see center Mitchell Robinson get more rebounds — even if he’s chasing and blocking shots. Robinson averaged 5.5 rebounds in 19.5 preseason minutes per game. Fizdale said he should be getting close to 10 rebounds a night.

“He’s not chasing every single shot,’’ Fizdale said. “He’s shown more discipline not going for shot fakes. He should still be able to get in there and grab eight to 10.”

Fizdale said his rotation will be at least 10, maybe up to 12, deep on some nights. … Robinson will donate $100 for each of his blocks while the Knicks will match $50 for every block to Tackle Kids Cancer at Hackensack University Medical Center. … Taj Gibson sat out practice with a sore calf.
