An issue that became rather apparent during the playoffs is that the New York Knicks need some additional role player help. Not only did the team’s bench disappoint for the most part, but even some of the stars didn’t live up to their expectations.
In an offseason with some cap flexibility and plenty of assets, there’s a real chance fans could see the Knicks target some higher-tier role players to improve their odds of success in the playoffs. Stars are always nice, but role players and the consistency they bring can be very important as well.
If the Knicks decide to not make major moves, these three role players are low-cost and could make a big difference entering the 2023-24 season.
