Knicks Waive Veteran Taj Gibson, Eyeing Trade Opportunities

Move comes ahead of trade deadline, with Knicks reportedly targeting five potential power forwards to bolster their frontcourt.

The New York Knicks have waived veteran power forward Taj Gibson, freeing up a roster spot ahead of the trade deadline.
Gibson, who was brought back to the Knicks last month, played in ten games but did not make an appearance in the previous three.
The Knicks are reportedly looking to strengthen their frontcourt and have identified five potential trade targets, including Karl-Anthony Towns and Pascal Siakam.
Gibson's departure comes after the Knicks traded for Precious Achiuwa and OG Anunoby, who have since taken over his role.
The Knicks are currently sitting in the middle of the pack in the Eastern Conference and are expected to be active in the trade market to fuel a deep playoff run.
