The Knicks? They now have Julius Randle and Marcus...

The Knicks’ plans of landing at least one superstar this offseason in NBA free agency went up in smoke, but Anthony Davis just gave them a glimmer of hope for next summer.

At least the Knicks won’t be bothered by the Nets’ latest signing. According to multiple reports, Brooklyn is bringing in former Knicks forward Henry Ellenson on a two-way deal. The 22-year-old, 2016 first-round pick spent 17 games with the Knicks last season, in which he averaged 6.0 points, 3.4 rebounds and shot 44 percent on...

Rookie shooting guard RJ Barrett wanted to play the final summer league game, a consolation finale Saturday against Washington.

There was no song and dance in Las Vegas from Knicks coach David Fizdale. Nor were there any remarks from Knicks president Steve Mills or general manager Scott Perry.

LAS VEGAS — The wait is still on. Any expansion to Mitchell Robinson’s game from his stout rookie season will have to come during preseason in October. The second-year 7-foot-1 center has talked up his offseason work on mid-range and 3-point shooting, but in his four summer league games, it never materialized. Robinson still showed...

SUN VALLEY, Idaho — NBA Commissioner Adam Silver isn’t giving up on the WNBA. Critics have called the money-losing women’s basketball league a failure, but Silver said he’s “doubling down” on it — and pointed to the success of the US women’s soccer team as a reason. “I was welling up watching the women’s World...

LAS VEGAS — Kevin Knox II didn’t become a national story at summer league this time, but he showed off a bulked-up frame that will make him more powerful in getting to the rim and absorbing contact. That was an issue as a rookie last season. However, Knox’s expected progression doesn’t guarantee he’ll play more...

One Laker was so frustrated during a lopsided loss to the Knicks on Wednesday that he ripped off Mitchell Robinson’s headband and threw it at the towering center. The odd sequence of events — in the third quarter of the Knicks 117-96 first Summer League win — earned Nick Perkins an ejection. Robinson pulled down...
