NBA: Power Ranking Each Team’s Starting Five Entering 2016-17

18 of 31

14. New York Knicks

Projected Starting Five: Derrick Rose, Courtney Lee, Carmelo Anthony, Kristaps Porzingis, Joakim Noah

The New York Knicks are one of the most intriguing teams in the NBA, personally for me, this season. On one hand, every one of these players could have a career year and the team could be really good. On the other, injuries could decimate this team and…well…you know.

We all know Derrick Rose; it’s all going to come down to health. Courtney Lee was a great signing. He’s always going to do the little things and be where he has to be on the defensive end. Melo will be Melo as long as he remains healthy.

Kristaps is still developing and has a limitless future. Joakim Noah is a big name, but is well past his prime. If he can stay healthy, though, he can be a solid pickup for the Knicks.
