Wesley Matthews
Another shooter that would make sense for the Knicks is Wesley Matthews. Matthews spent the past season with the Los Angeles Lakers, carving out a minimal role in his lone year with the team.
Even amid the bevy of moves that the Lakers have made, there’s a chance that Matthews returns to Los Angeles on a discounted deal. But if Matthews is looking to move on, then the Knicks could be a decent landing spot for the veteran shooting guard.
Yes, Matthews shot a career-worst 33.5 percent from behind the three-point line in 2020-21.
Despite his inability to be efficient from outside, Matthews is still a capable defender and I would expect his efficiency to be better next season.

If the Knicks want to compete in the Eastern Conference, they’ll need to continue shooting lights out from three, which Matthews is an expert in.
