New York Knicks: Signing Lance Stephenson Would Be A Bad Idea

In recent days, there has been talk that the New York Knicks could be interested in signing Lance Stephenson to a contract worth the veteran’s minimum. It’s not surprising that Stephenson remains a free agent.

His long history of antics have left teams wincing at the notion of signing him.

The Antics

In 2008, Stephenson, accused of groping a female high school student, pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct in July 2009.

His amateur status was investigated by the NCAA for participating in a documentary called “Born Ready” and for touring the Under Armour factory while visiting the University of Maryland.
