Some might say that the New York Knicks have been more conservative with their roster construction the past few years, but the reality is, they haven’t been an appealing landing spot for a majority of NBA stars. Ranging from Kevin Durant to Kyrie Irving, who signed with the Brooklyn Nets during the 2019 free agency period, the Knicks are still looking to add a big player who can transform their team.
The Knicks are playing above expectations this season, coming off a dominant victory over the Washington Wizards on Friday evening. Tantalizing defense and impressive offensive production from Julius Randle and Immanuel Quickley fueled their victory.
