The most notable and controversial free agent signing of the offseason for the New York Knicks was Tim Hardaway Jr. After his draft night exit via trade two years ago, as well as the series of events that have transpired in his absence, Hardaway’s signing was viewed from a cynical mindset.
Yet when you actually decipher and assess what his role will be this season, Hardaway is bound to endure a career and breakout year.
It’s no secret that the four-year Michigan product is not an established defender, though he has improved a bit since his first stint with the Knicks.
