New York Knicks: Dennis Smith Jr. Was Never A “Pass First” Point-Guard

Error 0:

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr.’s fourth-year option was picked up by Steve Mills and company in October 2019. Dennis Smith Jr. then helped Steve Mills get fired.

According to Marc Berman of the New York Post:

It was bad enough Mills failed to use the Knicks’ league-high cap space appropriately following the Kristaps Porzingis blockbuster trade 14 months ago. Adding insult to injury was that Smith, the Knicks’ prized athletic acquisition from the Mavericks, laid an egg in 2019-20. The Porzingis trade was Mills’ undoing, according to multiple sources.
