Knicks sign Kevin Seraphin to 1-year, $2.8M deal

The Knicks turned to a frontcourt free agent with the last of their extra money, inking center Kevin Seraphin to a one-year, $2.8 million deal, sources confirmed from multiple reports.

Seraphin, 25, who will serve as a backup to Robin Lopez, averaged 6.6 points and 3.6 boards in 79 games with the Wizards. The former first-round pick played his entire five-year career in Washington.

Not counting Langston Galloway, the Knicks have 13 players on guaranteed deals. There was some confusion about Sasha Vujacic's contract, but the guard's agent told the Daily News that the $1.35 million deal is fully guaranteed.
