The New York Knicks have kept a relatively low profile this offseason, but the front office could still have one last big move up its sleeve before training camp tips off.
Coming off an impressive run to the Eastern Conference Finals, the Knicks resisted making wholesale changes. Instead, the franchise focused on solving what many saw as their biggest issue — coaching stability — by hiring Mike Brown. With the addition of Jordan Clarkson and Guerschon Yabusele to bolster their bench, New York has already positioned itself as one of the strongest contenders in the East.
Could Malcolm Brogdon Be the Final Piece?
Despite having most of their rotation set, reports suggest that the Knicks may still pursue another guard in free agency. According to insider Jake Fischer, Malcolm Brogdon has emerged as a serious target on New York’s radar.
Brogdon, once a key piece in Boston’s 2023 Sixth Man of the Year campaign, has been somewhat overlooked during stints in Portland and Washington. However, his playoff pedigree — including multiple appearances in the Eastern Conference Finals — makes him an attractive option for a Knicks team looking to take the next step and finally break into the NBA Finals.
While there’s no guarantee that Brogdon would accept a role in New York, his versatility, high basketball IQ, and proven ability to thrive off the bench could make him a seamless fit. Adding his experience and steady playmaking would give the Knicks another reliable option as they gear up for what could be their most promising season in decades.
