New York Knicks Receive: G Grayson Allen, G George Hill
Milwaukee Bucks Receive: G Derrick Rose
The idea here for the New York Knicks is simple: move on from the remainder of Derrick Rose’s contract before his age and injuries become too limiting to his value.
There is no denying the impact Rose makes when he’s healthy. However, is it helpful for a team who was deep out of the play-in tournament picture to value it over youth? Also, for a team that struggled so much in the spot-up shooting department, would it be better to add shooting?
The Knicks would need to answer those questions for themselves, but from our perspective, it seems they could benefit from a trade of this nature.
The Milwaukee Bucks are limited in what they can send out via trade, but Grayson Allen’s contract would undoubtedly be the centerpiece of their offerings. He is coming off a season with averages of 11.1 points and 3.4 assists while shooting 40.9 percent from 3-point range.
