Overview
- League-sourced reporting says New York has held exploratory talks with Western teams, with Donte DiVincenzo and Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado discussed.
- DiVincenzo is averaging about 13.2 points and shooting roughly 38% from three for Minnesota this season.
- He thrived with the Knicks in 2023-24, averaging 15.5 points, hitting 40% from deep, and setting the franchise single-season three-point record with 283 makes.
- His fit includes established chemistry with former Villanova teammates Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, and Mikal Bridges.
- Any deal would need to account for his reported $12 million salary this year and $12.5 million next year as the Knicks weigh guard depth needs with Miles McBride out and Jordan Clarkson struggling.
