Why The New York Knicks Do The Deal
So, Beal is not the type of player who can be the best player on a contender. Would he be the best player on these Knicks?
It’s difficult to say. Between Beal, Jalen Brunson, and Julius Randle, you could justify any ranking order. That’s kind of the point here.
The Knicks would be running offense by committee with three low-tier stars. They already had a top offense last season without a top-10 player. Adding Beal should only make them stronger.
After all, he may not be the best player on a contender. He’s still a dynamic offensive weapon. Beal is an elite movement shooter who can score on all three levels. He’ll make the Knicks better.
