The Knicks have an epic showdown approaching in training camp. They only have one remaining roster spot that can go to a veteran, so they signed several to non-guaranteed deals, hoping one can rise to the top. Right now, most consider Landry Shamet and Malcolm Brogdon to be the favorites to land a deal. While both have compelling cases, not enough attention is being given to Garrison Mathews.
There has been plenty of speculation that the Knicks may also make a trade, which would create enough space to sign two veterans to the minimum, in what could only be described as a win-now move.
