New York Knicks Trade Small Forward Cleanthony Early
The New York Knicks’ D-League affiliate, the Westchester Knicks, have traded 2014 NBA draft pick Cleanthony Early to the Santa Cruz Warriors.
Phil Jackson was dealt an unenvious hand when he took over as team president of the New York Knicks. The previous regime traded the rights to the first-round draft picks in 2014 and 2016, thus leaving Jackson to make due with limited assets available to him.
On Wednesday, December 21, it was announced that the Knicks have officially moved on from the first player whom Jackson drafted: Cleanthony Early.
