With the extension of Mikal Bridges, the Knicks checked off another box on their offseason agenda. One of the few remaining large tasks to tackle is how they will fill out the bottom of their roster. As currently constructed, the Knicks are still missing a backup guard who can take on ball-handling responsibilities. One free agent who is capable of filling that role is veteran guard Monte Morris.
The Knicks have already bolstered their guard depth by signing Jordan Clarkson after the Utah Jazz bought him out. They also still employ Deuce McBride and have second-year guard Tyler Kolek hoping to step into a bigger role this year.
