The New York Knicks have a few big decisions to make this off-season, ranging from parting ways with valuable resources to acquire a star via trade, or rolling with the assets they currently have on hand.
With plenty of youth players and draft picks available, there is the potential for president Leon Rose to package a few together and target a player like Damian Lillard, but the Knicks could easily sit still, spending $60+ million in free agency and still have an improved team 2022.
With the expectation that Alec Burks, Nerlens Noel, Frank Ntilikina, and Taj Gibson will all hit the open market, the Knicks will be looking to roll over their salaries to other players and having multiple options like Lonzo Ball, Chris Paul, Spencer Dinwiddie, and much more for the taking, it might be beneficial to allocate the resources more strategically.
