NBA Trade Rumors: 3 trade ideas to help jumpstart the New York Knicks
New York Knicks add a veteran forward
If the New York Knicks come to the conclusion that their biggest needs are at the forward positions and they are determined to move Julius Randle, perhaps the Charlotte Hornets are a team that they should get on the phone with.
In this deal, the Knicks would move Randle’s contract, Cam Reddish (who the Knicks likely won’t be re-signing during the offseason anyways), and a future first-round pick. In return, New York would receive Gordon Hayward and P.J. Washington. Of course, this is all dependent on Hayward’s recovery from his current injury.
Assuming health, he’s a veteran presence that could help the Knicks.
If the Knicks want to make a move up the East standings, you’d have to imagine that a trade is something that may be necessary. The question is, will the right one present itself before the NBA Trade Deadline?
