Knicks Believe They Could Land Another “Significant Player”

According to Ian Begley of SNY, the New York Knicks believe they have the opportunity to land another “significant player.” New York believes the assets are there to land someone like Karl-Anthony Towns.

Believe it or not, they do have the assets. Currently lined up are eight tradeable first-rounders, four of which they own. Plus, they have Evan Fournier’s $18 million expiring contract they can dispose of.

While it’s “unlikely” the Minnesota Timberwolves will move off of Towns due to their team’s success, New York will never stop being tied to trading for him.

Some in the NBA world thought the Knicks were done; however, it’s believed they’ll make another move if it means not gutting their team. New York and the Toronto Raptors started trade season with the OG Anunoby and RJ Barrett trade.

According to ESPN’s Bobby Marks and Shams Charania, the New York Knicks are waiving Landry Shamet after he suffered a dislocated right shoulder.

The 27-year-old agreed to a non-guaranteed Exhibit 9 contract earlier in the offseason; many within the organization expected him to make the roster and have quality minutes. However, this injury has derailed those plans.

New York has three roster spots available; they must sign two players to meet the required 14-player roster.

When Shamet gets healthy, they will consider bringing him back.

Landry Shamet Expected To Make The Knicks Roster

According to The Athletic’s Fred Katz, the New York Knicks will most likely keep Landry Shamet on their roster after having him go through a roster battle with other players.

Since New York is up against the hard cap, they’ll only be able to get Shamet and a rookie on a minimum salary on their roster.

“I don’t make the final decision on that, but I’m basing it on what [Shamet’s] done on the floor. He’s really done well,” Thibodeau said.

Tom Thibodeau loved what he saw from Shamet and wants him on the roster. An official decision should be made soon.
