New York Knicks: Early candidates for roster cuts

The New York Knicks have 19 players on their 2018-19 season—20 with the newly-signed Jeff Coby, who’s a candidate to go to the G League. That group still includes Joakim Noah and his yet-to-be-waived-and-stretched contract.

With three preseason games over and two to go, the Knicks are one step closer to roster cuts. Multiple players will depart the team to cut the roster down to 15, with Isaiah Hicks and Allonzo Trier the two-way players to make it 17.

However, if the Knicks put Trier on the 15-man roster and remove the two-way tag, it creates a situation of unknowns for players on the brink and an interesting decision for the front office.
