Knicks 2017-18 Player Review: Luke Kornet

In British English, a “cornet” is an ice cream cone. Its base is circular and it rises to meet at a single point. Luke Kornet is an almost-23-year-old center. His game’s base is built on three-point shooting and rim protection. The questions around Kornet resolve at a single point: Is he worth committing a roster spot to? Short answer: yes. The Knicks signed him to a one-year, $1.6M deal.

Perhaps the only hotter take in Knick Nation these days than “They have too many point guards!” is “They have too many centers!” You don’t have “too many” of anything if none of what you have is proven.
