While I do think Russell and Mudiay will develop. Those guys are a year away from getting to the level that Grant is at right now. There is no guarantee those guys will be better than Grant. Initially, I wanted the Knicks to wait to develop Grant, but in retrospect, I think he will be ready to start by the end of December. Calderon is inevitably going to get hurt, so I would start Calderon until he gets injured and then slide Grant in as the starting PG and never look back.
The presence of Jerian should help Jose to stay healthy. He won't have to push nearly as hard as he would if he was the only PG option. We can ride Jerian's youth and keep Jose's minutes down. I would start Jerian for his defense. I don't think he'll be a detriment to winning at all. I think Jerian can handle starting in this system. The demands aren't quite what they are for most systems that may require a ball dominant PG. I think he could handle being thrown in the deep end of the pool.
Reminder what people were saying about Jerian Grant. Where is he now?
