Although the New York Knicks’ off-season could be considered a disappointment, they might have a saving grace from a new Lakers acquisition. Anthony Davis could be headed to New York, but it would all depend on how the Los Angeles squad performs this upcoming season.

With Davis expected to decline his player option for the 2020-21 season, rumors have circulated from his agent Rich Paul. “The 2020 free-agent pool is short on stars, but they could be one of the favorites for big fish Anthony Davis if the Lakers implode. Rich Paul, Davis’ agent, likes the idea of his client in New York, according to a source telling the New York Post.”

However, considering the luck the New York organization has had in the past couple of decades, they shouldn’t hold their breaths on this one. With the Knicks clearing up enough cap space to sign two superstar free agents this summer, ending up with Julius Randle was not their first option.
