Why The New York Knicks Do The Deal
What if we told you that the Knicks already had a star? Better yet, what if we told you that they already had two?
Julius Randle is back to producing like a franchise player after a down year last season. Meanwhile, Jalen Brunson is having a career season. There is already talent on this Knicks squad.
Adding Rozier would make them even more potent. He may not be a perennial All-Star, but he’s still a dynamic offensive guard who can create shots for himself and others at will.
If there’s any hesitation here, it’ll owe to the small backcourt the Knicks would be assembling between Rozier and Brunson. That’ll be an obstacle.

Still, they’ve got a bruising pairing up front between Randle and Mitch Robinson, and the offensive benefits ought to outweigh any defensive issues.
