New York Knicks Receive: Devonte’ Graham, Cody Zeller, 2022 1st Round Pick (Top 5 Prot.)
Charlotte Hornets Receive: Julius Randle
The New York Knicks have a big trade piece at the moment who is having an All-Star caliber start. Julius Randle is leading the Knicks in both points and rebounds while notching a double-double almost every night.
Because of his contract situation, Randle could be the perfect trade piece for the Knicks if they are not going to re-sign him. Keep in mind, moving him would clear room for more playing time for Obi Toppin.
New York would also get a nice haul for Julius Randle. Devonte’ Graham is the centerpiece of this deal along with a first-round pick in 2022. Cody Zeller is in the final year of his contract so this is a low-risk move with no bearing on the future.
Let’s take a look and see how this deal would benefit both sides right away.
