Knicks work out Oklahoma point guard Trae Young

GREENBURGH — Trae Young has not been to a game at Madison Square Garden. He has been on a tour there, however, visiting with his AAU team in fifth grade.

“We found a way to get into the Garden and look around a little bit,” the Oklahoma point guard said Tuesday, adding with a smile that the thought of playing for the Knicks is “pretty cool.”

Perhaps, this childhood memory explains why Young, who led the nation in scoring and assists last year, decided to work out for the team Tuesday, despite the fact that many think he will be gone by the time the Knicks pick at No.
