Nearly every single batch of New York Knicks trade rumors links them to a guard. Failing that, they get tied to a backup big man. But it’s never a wing, despite the rotation’s clear need for a reliable one outside of the OG Anunoby, Mikal Bridges, and Josh Hart trio.
Now we know why.
It isn’t because the Knicks front office has no idea what it needs most. It isn’t even because they actually need another ball-handling guard or big man more than a wing. You are free to make that case, particularly if you believe they cannot trust Tyler Kolek’s play, or Mitchell Robinson’s availability.
