Super Mario to the Big Apple?
Mario Hezonja became an unrestricted free agent at 12:01 on Sunday morning and apparently wasted little time exploring his options. According to Michael Scotto of The Athletic, Hezonja met with the New York Knicks, whose current general manager Scott Perry was part of the regime in Orlando that drafted Hezonja.

Hezonja is an unrestricted free agent because, in October, the Magic declined his fourth-year option, which would have paid him $5.
