Despite not being anywhere near the postseason picture, it appears the New York Knicks are interested in trading for a big name. Shams Charania and Jon Krawczynski of The Athletic report they’re interested in trading for Warriors guard D’Angelo Russell.
SNY’s Ian Bagley reported the same thing around the same time.
Bobby Portis, Frank Ntilikina have come up in Knicks talks with GSW about D'Angelo Russell, per SNY sources. Over the summer, Russell was intrigued about the idea of playing for NYK, in part because it would allow him to compete closely against BKN.
