The last few days have provided the usual drama to which fans of the team have grown accustomed. Per Marc Berman of the New York Post, Kanter was none too pleased about recently losing his starting job to Luke Kornet. He didn’t demand a trade outright but stopped short of saying he wanted to stay with the Knicks.
ESPN reported this morning Kanter took a meeting with GM Scott Perry and discussed his dwindling minutes. Kanter again denied asking for a trade, stating instead his anger and frustration stemmed from New York’s recent losing streak.
