If you need any additional proof that the New York Knicks have settled on bringing back Landry Shamet, you’re about to get some from another team.
The Milwaukee Bucks are signing Amir Coffey to a one-year minimum deal, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. And yes, the Knicks should be kind of bummed about it.
Free agents who ink deals this late in the offseason while switching teams generally won’t have a major impact. Coffey isn’t some grand exception. The Knicks have 12 roster spots locked up. He would have entered as no more than a potential ninth or 10th man.
