Several news organizations, including The New York Post, are reporting that the NYPD is probing allegations that former Knicks power forward Kristaps Porzingis sexually assaulted a woman on the night of Feb. 7, 2014. The alleged incident occurred just hours after Porzingis blew out his knee during a game against the Milwaukee Bucks.
As soon as the news broke, there questions surrounding the Knicks’ front office and their trade deadline deal that sent Porzingis to the Dallas Mavericks: How much did the Knicks know at the time, and did that factor into their decision to deal the franchise cornerstone?
