The New York Knicks and free agent guard Cameron Payne agreed to a one-year deal for the veteran minimum, sources told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski on Monday.
Payne, who turns 30 next month, split the 2023-24 season between the Milwaukee Bucks and Philadelphia 76ers. He averaged 7.4 points and 2.6 assists per game in 78 appearances, including 9.3 points and 3.1 assists in 31 games (eight starts) for Philadelphia.
Payne gives the Knicks more depth in their backcourt after losing guards Immanuel Quickley and Quentin Grimes in trades this past year.
