The New York Knicks came close to trading third-year point guard Frank Ntilikina this off-season after two years of disappointing play. They also brought in veteran free agent Elfrid Payton to supplement the deficiencies of The Frenchman.
While Frank’s future with the Knicks was in jeopardy, he managed to stay on the team and will compete for another season. This could be his final opportunity to prove his worth and increase his scoring production in an attempt to overtake Payton for the number two point guard spot.
Ntilikina will likely be on the active roster for the start of the regular season, but will he start a game in 2019 or will he come off the bench as a situational player?
