The Knicks have almost signed the assist-producing point guard to a 2-year deal

The Knicks have been proactive this season, adding championship-caliber pieces to bolster their roster. By securing two elite defensive wings in Mikal Bridges and OG Anunoby, they have significantly improved the team’s depth and the starting lineup that will be on display in October.

In their quest for depth at the point guard position, Knicks management signed Cameron Payne to a one-year, $3 million deal to assist Jalen Brunson, who is coming off one of the best seasons at point guard in Knicks history. This offseason, Brunson signed a new four-year, $156 million extension with the team.
