Isaiah Hartenstein joined Oklahoma City during the summer and New York did not replace the man who was its starting center at the end of the season, but also during the playoffs.
Sure, Precious Achiuwa was kept but SNY explains that New York is still looking for an additional pivot to complete the squad. It must be said that the expected starter, Mitchell Robinson, is fragile, and that the replacements, Precious Achuiwa therefore but also Jericho Sims, are viable options on short durations.
The problem is that the options are limited for the club from the “Big Apple”, which still has one place on its roster. The franchise has therefore tried to recover Omer Yurtsevenwho preferred to join Panathinaikos, and SNY adds that the club approached Bruno Fernandowho ultimately preferred to sign with the Raptors.
So there aren't many players left on the market (Bismack Biyombo?) and the best solution would probably be an exchange, while the Knicks are said to be interested in the profile of Walker Kesslerthe interior of Utah.
