We now have a pretty good idea how the New York Knicks intend to use their final veteran minimum’s salary slot in free agency. Their preference, it seems, is to add someone who can play point guard.
Responding to mailbag questions over at The Athletic, James Edwards III notes that he is “expecting New York to use its veteran’s minimum spot on the point guard position.” He then goes on to name-check Malcolm Brogdon, Monte Morris, Ben Simmons, and Delon Wright as options worth monitoring.
This won’t come as a stunning development for anyone who’s been reading the tea leaves.
