The Knicks probably still need a backup-type veteran center, a big banger to come off the bench to help Joakim Noah and Spanish rookie pivot Willy Hernangomez.
But 7-foot former Duke center Marshall Plumlee will give it his best shot to be part of that mix – and at least will give Noah and Hernangomez a physical battle in October.
Plumlee, who was on the Knicks summer league team in Orlando, told The Post he has been invited to Knicks training camp. His two brothers, Miles and Mason, are in the NBA, drafted as first-round picks.
Marshall is taking a different route.
