What does this mean!? In another hasty move, the Knicks snuck in a workout for UNC freshman guard, Coby White. This coming on the heels of a somewhat slapdash affair with Darius Garland yesterday. UNC guard Coby White -- perhaps the fastest rising prospect on the board -- had a private workout with the Knicks at team's facility today, league sources tell ESPN. Knicks have been locked...

The tidbits came in separate stories. First,...

Despite missing the prospect media day to attend the workout, Garland seemed in good spirits. According to Marc Berman, Garland has a lot of fans in New York’s front office . Some even believe...

A trade of the pick seems unlikely at the moment. Hooray! Draft night is nearly upon us, and it appears the Knicks are planning to keep things simple by selecting someone with the third pick instead of using it as a trade chip, although it’s no longer completely certain which top prospect will be available when New York is on the clock. Ever since the NBA rigged the draft lottery, which...

Randle is good. Is he good enough to warrant a major, multi-year deal? The Knicks are no longer locks to sign two superstars and suddenly be a competitor next season, but the front office must still fill out the roster and is reportedly considering a run at Julius Randle . Randle , 24-years-young and coming off the best season of his career thus far, has officially decided not to opt in...

The only mock to take very seriously. The NBA Draft is — oh, look — it’s right there! This Thursday, June 20th, the cloudy fates of some 60 young hoopers will become a little clearer. Until they get traded in some mega deal for a borderline superstar or flipped for a future asset unlikely to pan out later. You can expect all the Woj bombs and sonic booms from Shams to start any second...

Nudniks be damned, things are looking up. Last week Kevin Durant tore his Achilles, Kyrie Irving supposedly got googly-eyed with the Nets and Anthony Davis was traded to the Lakers. Cue the “Typical Knicks” mouth breathers. Sure Anthony Davis is good but just wait til Dennis Smith Alonzo Trier RJ Barrett and Kevin Knox shoot a combined 41% next year. — Yaya Dubin (@JADubin5) June 15,...

The 7'1" Texas native has shown growth throughout his G League career and NBA call-ups. Despite going undrafted in the 2017, Luke Kornet has quietly left a solid impression on the New York Knicks over the past two seasons. Whether during his stints in the G League or getting called up to the NBA, the Vanderbilt product has not only been productive and improving with each appearance. At...

With the season now over, the Knicks’ season now begins. June. How I love June. ‘Twas was shaping up like a good June for the Knicks. Hadn’t lost a game in months. The nights of 20th (the draft) and 30th (free agency starts) figured to be exciting times around here. David Fizdale be hobnobbing with Señor Odinson. Winter, it seemed, was finally over. Maybe once and for all. I’m sure...

Good riddance to a crappy season. Well, friends, another NBA season is in the books. Did you enjoy the Finals? Of course you didn’t. To me, the Finals cemented 2018-19 as the worst season in Knicks history. The regular season was bad — tied with 2014-15 as the worst ever — but at least for a while we could hold onto the hope that next season we would be watching Kevin Durant at the...

After undergoing an MRI in New York (New York, eh?), Durant on Wednesday revealed to the...
