The Knicks’ roster is screaming for a big wing.
A lockdown defender. A court spacer. Someone who complements co-stars Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle and makes it more difficult for opposing teams to pack the paint and swarm the two.
That player wasn’t readily available on the free-agent market, and even if he would have been, the Knicks didn’t have the salary-cap flexibility to sign him.
But he could be attainable.
