Knicks could replace Jimmer Fredette with Tony Wroten

The Knicks recently met with free agent guard Tony Wroten, who could replace Jimmer Fredette if the club elects not to sign Fredette to a second 10-day contract, the Daily News has learned.

Wroten is a 6-foot-6 guard who was waived by the Sixers on Dec. 24th. He was originally selected 25th overall by the Memphis Grizzlies in the 2012 NBA draft. Last season, he scored a career-high 31 points in a loss to the Chicago Bulls. Wroten had season-ending right knee surgery last January.

The Knicks interviewed Wroten last weekened in New York. Fredette's 10-day contract expires on Thursday.
