GREENBURGH, N.Y. — Can you imagine the Knicks with a frontcourt that includes Kristaps Porzingis and Wendell Carter Jr.? The 6-10 freshman from Duke certainly can.
Carter made it clear after working out for the Knicks Friday that he would embrace the chance to play alongside the Knicks big man from Latvia.
“Kristaps, he’s a phenomenal player,” Carter said. “It would be an honor to play alongside him. Learning from him, he’s been in the league awhile now.”
Heading into the draft, the Knicks’ biggest need is a for a wing player who can score. Carter does not exactly fit that bill.
