The Knicks have waived guard/forward James Young two days after signing him, the team announced.
Young, 25, is 6-foot-6 and was selected by the Celtics out of Kentucky with the No. 17 overall pick in 2014.
He hasn’t played in the NBA since the 2017-18 season, when he appeared in six games with the 76ers. He spent last season playing professionally in Israel and has also played in the G League.
He is likely headed back to the G League with the Westchester Knicks.
The Knicks roster now stands at 19, with two players on two-way contracts. That means they still have to cuts to make by the weekend.
