Three weeks ahead of the Feb. 6 trade deadline, the Knicks’ leading scorer — and likely their most marketable chip — returned to the starting lineup. Marcus Morris was back Thursday night against Phoenix after missing the previous five games with a neck injury, but his 17 points weren’t enough to avoid the Knicks’ seventh...

The Knicks don’t have Deandre Ayton as their smooth-as-silk center of the future. Instead, they have Mitchell Robinson, a super-athletic, 7-foot-1, shot-blocking big man who still has several holes in his offensive game and really is not that much better than his rookie season. Ayton, the No. 1-overall pick in the 2018 draft by the...

Just as Marcus Morris made it back to the Knicks’ lineup, lottery pick RJ Barrett departed with an injury that somehow could make them even more unwatchable this season.

The 21-year-old could be the next Westchester Knick to sign an NBA contract. Big man Kenny Wooten inked a two-year two-way deal with the Knicks earlier this week. The club would have to open another roster spot to make room for Peters, who is free to sign a contract with any NBA team at the moment.
NY Post (Greg Joyce) —
The Knicks could get a boost Thursday if Marcus Morris and Frank Ntilikina wake up feeling good. Morris (sore neck) and Ntilikina (sore groin) are both listed as questionable for the Knicks’ game against the Suns at the Garden after taking part in some contact drills during Wednesday’s practice. “I think [Morris] is feeling a...

RJ Barrett was on a recruiting trip to Oregon when he witnessed a feat he had never seen before. Kenny Wooten, then a 6-foot-8 freshman for the Ducks, put a piece of tape on his hands, jumped and touched the top of the backboard. “We had to get a ladder to get the tape down,”...
