Jordan Clarkson has won over New York months before his first Knicks game

Jordan Clarkson has "Knicks legend" written all over him. The 2020-21 NBA Sixth Man of the Year hasn't garnered much attention in the public eye since winning that award, but that's because he has been playing for the Utah Jazz, who have not been interested in "winning" any "basketball games" lately. He's also had some longer-term injuries the past few seasons, but still averaged 16.2 points and shot 36% from deep in 37 games.

Now on the Knicks after signing a one-year deal, Clarkson is suddenly in front of the most passionate fans in the NBA, and he's doing a great job early on to win their favor.
