New York Knicks: A healthy Porzingis

Losing Kristaps Porzingis really put a damper on the New York Knicks‘ 2018-19 NBA campaign. Because they lost him so late in the year last season, due to a significant knee injury, there’s a chance that we may not even see Kristaps at all this season.

But for this team it was never about this season. As long as they can get back a healthy Porzingis for next season, all will be good for the Knicks – even more so if they can land a high pick in this year’s loaded NBA Draft.

The Knicks are well into their rebuild, and could be one year away from making a strong push for the playoffs. But that won’t come without their healthy unicorn.
