Will the Knicks win the East? #nba #knicks #nbafreeagency #basketball #sports #newyorkknicks

Will the New York Knicks come out on top and win the East? Leon Rose made a couple of really good moves for this Knicks bench that ensures that they can get there. First, he goes out and he gets Jordan Clarkson, an above average mid-range shooter. The guy averaged 16 points per game last year, a former sixth man of the year. This is exactly the sort of guard help off the bench that the Knicks need when Brunson needs rest. Then in knowing Mitch Robinson’s injury history, Leon goes out and gets Gershon Yabule to get some big man depth on this team. Yabel’s got a hell of a story, too. First round pick by the Celtics in 2016. Doesn’t work out. He goes over to China. Then he plays for Real Madrid. And then most recently last year, he wins a silver medal with team France, putting up a real fight against USA. Comes back to the States, has a hell of a year for the Sixers, averaging 11 points and 5.6 rebounds per game, 50% from the field. Per FanDuel, the Knicks have the best odds to win the East.
