The New York Knicks were not supposed to be here. Julius Randle had a rough 2021-22 NBA season. When the Knicks added Jalen Brunson the following summer, eyes rolled.
Once again, the Knicks made a shortsighted effort to compete.
This year, they’ve proven a lot of people wrong. Randle has bounced back. The Knicks have one of the best offenses in the entire NBA. This is a good team.
This summer, they should try to get even better. The Knicks have some draft capital to spare and some intriguing young players.
They’re as strong of a candidate to make a win-now move this summer as anybody.
Could they make one by acquiring Andrew Wiggins of the Golden State Warriors?
