But where is the tiny table? The New York Knoxerbockers announced today the signing of the 9th pick in the 2018 NBA Draft , Kevin Knox.

E-ha-haaa it’s a me... Wario! Totally eclipsing the Lakers ’ big Kentavious Caldwell-Pope news, the Knicks have made an interesting free agent signing to kick off the summer.

The Knicks might not be big free agency players, but they’ll sign someone Free agency is upon us. The Knicks don’t figure to do much of anything, but as last season proved, sometimes the smallest additions can pay big dividends.

There’s not too many! With the draft over, the Knicks’ limited attention can now be turned to free agency — and I say “limited” attention, because Scott Perry and Steve Mills have made it pretty clear that they’re mostly sitting on their hands this offseason in an effort to make a splash next offseason. There’s not much wiggle room for the Knicks — they’re capped out after Enes Kanter...
