New York Knicks Receive: C Dwight Powell, G/F Frank Ntilikina, 2025 First-Round Pick (Lottery Protected – DAL)

This deal would have Frank Ntilikina on his second tour of duty with the Knicks. Fans in Madison Square Garden are unlikely to complain.

By now, it seems safe to conclude that he’ll never be a big-time scorer or playmaker.

What Ntilikina does bring is energy and effort. He’s a strong defensive player, capable of locking down guards in addition to some wings. He plays with the type of grit that’s always suited New York City.

Of course, the Knicks aren’t making this deal to land Ntilikina. He’s a fun subplot in this story. As we mentioned, the Knicks are after draft capital and cap space here.
