The New York Knicks made it a priority to upgrade the point guard spot this off-season, and signing Kemba Walker and retaining Derrick Rose accomplished just that. With two offensive-minded players who can operate as a floor general, the state of the PG spot has changed dramatically in just one off-season.
Just one year ago, the Knicks were rolling out Elfred Payton, Frank Ntilikina and hoping that Immanuel Quickley could provide some support at one of the more important positions on any given team. Now, the challenge will be devising ways to get all of their talent at point guard involved, ranging from Rose to Miles McBride, the team’s 36 overall pick out of West Virginia this year.
