His trainer Marcell Scott can now laugh at the notion of Knicks 7-foot center Mitchell Robinson getting seasoning in the G-League as a rookie. “I knew once they saw Mitchell on the court and saw all the stuff he brings to the table, the G-League would be eliminated from the conversation,’’ Scott told The Post...

No NBA star is off the table for the Knicks, according to big man Enes Kanter.

Enes Kanter is dreaming big — which, for the Knicks, means dreaming long range. The Knicks’ 6-foot-11 center said Monday that he believes his sad-sack team has a “really, really high chance’’ of signing both Kyrie Irving and Jimmy Butler when the pair of free-agents-to-be hit the market in 2019. Asked by Fox Sports 1’s...
