The Allonzo Trier era in New York came and went quickly.
Trier, who was given a two-year contract just months into his career after the Knicks signed him to a two-way contract as an undrafted free agent, was waived Friday to make room for a waiver claim pickup of former Nets guard Theo Pinson.
Trier started his NBA career in 2018-19 with a bang, scoring 15 points off the bench on opening night, and was transitioned from a two-way deal to a full contract in December of his rookie year. He scored a career-high 31 points against Houston as a rookie and scored 20 points or more nine times that season.
