We may not know when the New York Knicks will make their first trade of the season. Nor do we know what that deal will be. Thanks to Tyler Kolek’s emergence, though, we can be fairly confident who the Knicks are most likely to move when they do strike an agreement.
It’s Pacome Dadiet.
The answer to this question was far from clear before now. Both Kolek and Dadiet entered the season in the running for the “most likely Knicks player to get dealt” title.
Since then, Kolek’s value has skyrocketed, which renders him less of a trade candidate given New York’s need for secondary ball-handling.
