Knicks Rumors: Kristaps Porzingis Situation Remains Unresolved

Related Topics: New York Knicks, Phil Jackson

The New York Knicks are in the process of rebuilding the organization around Kristaps Porzingis. Unfortunately, that process has taken a number of polarizing turns during what’s still an unofficial 2017 NBA offseason.

Knicks team president Phil Jackson made an effort to smooth things over, but a recent report implies that minimal progress was made.

Jackson has made it public knowledge that he plans to trade Porzingis’ mentor: Carmelo Anthony. That created the current situation, as Porzingis’ future in New York has since been called into question by speculative sources.

According to Stefan Bondy of The New York Daily News, Jackson recently met with Porzingis’ agent and brother, Janis Porzingis, but failed to rectify the issues.
