Knicks team president Steve Mills reiterated at a recent speaking event that Kristaps Porzingis requested a trade during that fateful meeting in January, and claimed that KP explicitly said he would not re-sign with the Knicks.
Mills was speaking at some kind of Fan Forum Series hosted by JPMorgan Chase & Co. The full context of the situation was not available, as the only video posted was a 34 second clip that cuts off just as Scott Perry begins to piggyback on what Mills was saying.
In the clip, Mills restates the company line, which is that Porzingis marched into that late January meeting and demanded to be dealt.
