The offseason can be long and unforgiving. It rings true in any sport.
With the Knicks, even though it’s only been 43 days since the last time they took the floor, it feels significantly longer. It’ll be another 81 days until their first preseason game in Abu Dhabi on October 2.
In the meantime, we have Summer League.
There’s a good chance that not a single player on the Knicks’ Summer League roster is a key contributor to what hopes to be a championship contender at the World’s Most Famous Arena next season, but there exists a bevy of interesting young players that could occupy key depth spots, while other fight for two-way contracts and an NBA dream that seems so distant when you latch onto the back of a Summer League roster.
