The Knicks get their starting point guard via trade
It has been assumed for quite some time that the Knicks are going to be aggressive in free agency. New York needs a new point guard, even if they elect to re-sign Derrick Rose.
Chris Paul, Kyle Lowry, Mike Conley, Dennis Schroder, and Lonzo Ball are the notable point guards that will be available in free agency.
Amid the rumors around the NBA of the Knicks signing one of the point guards sitting in free agency, I believe they get their point guard of the future via trade.
Could Russell Westbrook be on New York’s radar if the Washington Wizards start fresh? Does the team conduct a sign-and-trade for Ball? What about guys like John Wall, D’Angelo Russell, or Malcolm Brogdon?

The possibilities are endless on what the Knicks can do at the point guard position, especially with the cap space they possess. Instead of signing a new floor general in free agency, New York addresses their glaring need at point guard on the trade market.
