New York Knicks: News Articles
NY Post (Marc Berman) —
As LeBron James reaffirmed Monday night at Staples Center, Madison Square Garden has always held a special grip on his heart. Not the Knicks, mind you, but the arena on 33rd Street, sandwiched between 7th and 8th avenues. In a private conversation with Dwyane Wade after they played against each other for the final time,...

The conversion of Allonzo Trier’s contract will be delayed as the Knicks guard will miss at least the next three games with a hamstring strain. Trier is currently on a two-way NBA and G-League deal, but is fast approaching the limit of 45 days with the NBA team before that contract needs to be...

If you are a New York sports obsessive, there’s a good chance you may have missed this scene late Monday night because you were doing as your fellow obsessives were doing: wearing out Twitter every 15 or 20 seconds, refreshing, refreshing, refreshing, as the first frenzy of activity at baseball’s winter meetings began to churn....

Courtney Lee is headed to the minors. The 33-year-old shooting guard, who returned three games ago from a mysterious, season-long neck injury, has been assigned to the G League’s Westchester Knicks to play against the Lakeland Magic on Wednesday so he can get big minutes. Lee admitted over the weekend he’s in preseason form, and...

LeBron James was always looking for a reason to play in New York. James Dolan never gave him one. Given the events of the last decade or so, that would be a reasonable interpretation of James’ latest tease to Knicks fans. Although at this point it’s much more of a gut-punch than a tease. Following...
NY Post (Kyle Schnitzer) —
Look away, Knicks fans. LeBron James hinted he could have been playing for the Knicks, and the reason it didn’t happen might be Phil Jackson, according to a report. Following the Lakers’ nail-biting, 108-105 win Monday night against the Heat at the Staples Center, James met with longtime friend Dwyane Wade in likely the last...

We are forever looking for signs, because that’s what we’ve been reduced to. We could sit around and X off the calendar until pitchers and catchers report to Yankees camp — that would be 64 days, as of Tuesday — when our next sure thing rises again, or we can look around Everywhere Else, looking,...

Two players in NBA history have scored at least 25 points and grabbed at least 15 rebounds in one game before their 20th birthdays. One is LeBron James, among the greatest players of all time. The other is Kevin Knox, who is nowhere close to being spoken about in those terms, but who accomplished that...

Willy Hernangomez is taking the line from “The Dark Knight” — “You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain” — to heart. The one-time fan favorite may become a sworn Garden enemy with comments like these. “Now my job,” he said of close friend Kristaps Porzingis, “is to...

Kemba Walker didn’t shut the door completely, leaving it open just enough to give Knicks fans a glimmer of hope. “I don’t have any interest in coming back home — right now,” the Hornets’ free-agent-to-be point guard said when asked if playing for his hometown Knicks would appeal to him. At least the dynamic Bronx...
NY Times (FIELD LEVEL MEDIA) —
Walker, a native New Yorker, had 25 points for Charlotte. Kevin Knox scored 26 for the Knicks, who have lost four in a row.
NY Post (Peter Botte) —
If the Knicks were hoping to convince Kemba Walker to join them next summer as a free agent, at least they can say their youthful core put up a fourth-quarter fight in their latest ugly defeat this season. One night after a late rally fell short against the rival Nets, the Knicks couldn’t climb all...

French Fried. French Toasted. However you want to characterize it, the Knicks couldn’t hang with the Hornets on French Heritage Night at the Garden on Sunday in a 119-107 defeat. Except Frank Ntilikina. He was tremendous until he fouled out on questionable calls, sending David Fizdale into a rage...
NY Daily News (Stefan Bondy) —
On the same day Kevin Knox faced Miles Bridges, the player he thumped in his Knicks predraft workout, David Fizdale said the rookie’s effort has improved but he’s still adjusting to the physicality of the NBA. “Definitely has gotten better with (his motor). He’s made some jumps in that area. He’s...

If there’s a solution, it’s not obvious to Tim Hardaway Jr. Immersed in a nasty shooting slump, the guard said he can only continue to work and hope for the best. “I guess,” he said. “I need to find easy ones but that’s not happening. Try to go to the line, but that’s not happening. So whatever...
