The New York Knicks have featured valuable players in their franchise’s history, but just how much? It can be determined through Value Over Replacement Player (VORP), which estimates how a player would perform instead of a “replacement player.” Basketball-Reference describes this as a “player on minimum salary or not a normal member of a team’s rotation.”
For this unique but valuable stat, who stands tall in Knicks history?
- Patrick Ewing, 42.4: Ewing’s VORP is, by far, the highest of anyone’s in Knicks history. He dominated his time with the team, and it shows through this high number.
