Knicks Rumor: Pros and cons of calling up Trey Burke from NBA G League

The New York Knicks have hit something of a wall during the 2017-18 NBA regular season. After briefly thriving without Tim Hardaway Jr., reality has sunk in and the $71 million man’s value to the team has been revealed.

As the front office searches for ways to improve, an unsurprising name has surfaced as a potential option to fill a void: Trey Burke.

Burke was selected at No. 9 overall in the 2013 NBA Draft. After four erratic seasons with the Utah Jazz and Washington Wizards, however, Burke signed with the Westchester Knicks of the NBA G League in an attempt to resurrect his career.
