With the NBA trade deadline on March 25 inching closer every day, the New York Knicks continue to scour the market for potential star auditions. Adding a significant player would help their playoff hopes, as the Knicks could use the extra town to push them over the edge. They currently sit at 14–16 on the season, giving them a .467 win percentage. They are the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference standings, putting them in a spot to compete during the postseason.
One more big player would allow them to climb the seeded ranks, potentially even earning a home-field series.
