Leon Rose speaks! Knicks brass gives press conference before training camp

It had been 421 days since Knicks president Leon Rose had spoken to the press...but who’s counting? The New York press, that’s who.

Leon Rose speaks to the media for the first time in 421 days!

Wait. Did he just not want to talk to me? https://t.co/G9AzIs4A3G— Mike Vorkunov (@MikeVorkunov) September 24, 2021

I’m just joshin’ ya, Mike. Anyway, Don Leon had previously been too busy building the first good Knicks team in a decade to bother with the media—and fans didn’t really care all that much—but the Godfather stepped up to share a few words just before his Knicks start training camp.
