The New York Knicks were never expected to have a roster issue entering the 2018-19 season. That changed when Allonzo Trier impressed head coach David Fizdale in training camp, succeeded in the preseason and made the opening night roster on a two-way contract.
Two-way contracts allow a player to stay on an NBA roster for a maximum of 45 days. Once that expires, the player must return to the G League or receive the typical one-way deal to stay on the main roster.
At this rate, after 11.3 points on 46.6 percent shooting, Trier will stay with the Knicks past his December cut-off date.
