Immanuel Quickley is garnering interest from teams around the league, though the Knicks aren’t looking to move him, according to Ian Begley of SNY.tv.
Rival clubs see New York’s surplus of point guards and logically believe the franchise will move at least one of their guards by the end of the season.
Quickley will be eligible for an extension this offseason, so that is something that could factor into any new developments.
More NBA Trade Rumors
- The latest on Russell Westbrook talks between the Spurs and Lakers is that the two sides have spoken about a trade that would send Josh Richardson and Doug McDermott to the Lakers for Westbrook, though Los Angeles has only been willing to include a pair of second-round picks in the deal (via LJ Ellis of SpursTalk.com).
- Teams like the Jazz, Spurs, and Pacers were all expected to be contenders for the No. 1 pick, though all three are off to fine starts to the season. However, many around the league believe it’s just a matter of time before tanking picks up “It’s such a long season,” one NBA executive tells Sam Amick of The Athletic. “A lot of people that run and operate teams understand the risk of not winning games, as far as what it does to the fabric of your organization or your team. They do value teaching the right habits and making sure they’re putting their best foot forward and trying to win games, so I think that’s why you’re seeing teams perform better than what we thought coming out. But I do think at some point during the season, when teams realize where they’re at, they’ll adjust and do more things to try to procure the best position they can.”
