Knicks’ storylines to watch: Point-guard battle tops the list

The Knicks were active in the offseason but didn’t land the big names many fans hoped. Here’s a look at some of the issues heading into camp:

Best Position Battle: Point guard

The battle royale at training camp will — again — be at point guard. Last camp, it featured Trey Burke, Emmanuel Mudiay and Frank Ntilikina waging the playmaking war. Mudiay (Jazz) and Burke (76ers) are gone. GM Scott Perry signed old fave Elfrid Payton to battle Dennis Smith Jr. and Ntilikina, the longest-tenured Knick. Smith worked heavily on his 3-point shot with assistant Keith Smart.
