With 21 days until training camp starts for the New York Knicks, they are making a few low-key moves to bolster their G-League squad. With options like Jericho Sims likely to start his rookie season at the G-League level, the Knicks also added shifty guard Jaylen Hands in a trade with the Long Island Nets.
In exchange, the Westchester Knicks returned the rights to Bryce Brown, a 6’3″ shooting guard. Brown played a total of 43 G-League games over the last two seasons with the Boston Celtics and Knicks affiliate teams. The 25-year-old auburn product underwent surgery on his ankle last season, so the Knicks were looking for a younger option, and Hands, who is only 22-years-old, got the call.
