New York Knicks: Don’t go all-in on PG Fred VanVleet

Fred VanVleet is one of the NBA’s more exciting players to watch.

The Toronto Raptors guard has an energy about him that makes him play at full go almost constantly. He never takes plays off and has proven to be a force with the ball in his hand. In a brief, four-year career, VanVleet has gone from undrafted bench option to scrappy scorer.

And the timing of it is perfect. Sometime this fall, VanVleet will be a free agent at just 26 years old. Given his gradual improvement in each of his four professional seasons, he is bound to get a sizable contract in an overall weak free agency class.
