Other teams are interested in hiring Knicks assistant Royal Ivey

The Knicks have bolstered Tom Thibodeau’s coaching staff with several high-profile hires, but what about the assistants left over from last season? We know interim head coach Mike Miller probably won’t be back, and according to Ian Begley, assistant Royal Ivey is drawing interest from several clubs.

“Several teams have expressed interest in Knicks player development coach Royal Ivey, who is currently under contract with New York.

The Knicks haven’t made a decision yet on Ivey, but the teams who are interested in Ivey believe that it is likely that New York would allow him out of his contract to pursue other opportunities.
