NBA Rumors: NBA Star Players the New York Knicks Should Consider Picking Up
Written by SOURCE on June 3, 2021
The Knicks season is officially over. While the playoff run was shorter than most fans had hoped for, you can’t call this Knicks season anything but a success. They roared into the playoffs for the first time in years and proved that they have a solid core to build around for the future. While the season was surely a success, the playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks made one thing painfully obvious: the Knicks need a star.

Many thought Julius Randle might be that guy but this series showed his limitations. The Knicks need their Trae Young. A guy who will go out there and just win you a game. The good news for the Knicks is that this season will absolutely help bring stars to the city. The Garden is back and we all know every NBA really wants to shine in MSG.
More good news for the Knicks, is that according to Brian Windhorst, a NBA superstar is going to force their way to the Knicks in the next 12 months. The full quote is below:
I say within the next 12 months a star slash superstar player demands a trade to New York. And I don’t know who it’s going to be. I have some guesses. I’m not going to say right here. I’ll let you guys start thinking about that. Let’s just put it this way: League executives certainly have some guesses. And I say by next year’s trade deadline a player – a superstar, All-Star player – tries to force his way there.
Are the Knicks about the be fully back? It appears that way. No idea who that star player could be, but we decided to share some ideas for you guys.
