Noah Vonleh signs with Knicks

I like it...22 years old. Has some upside but this still puts our roster at too many unless a trade is happening or Noah is being stretched.

Good no risk flier on an underachieving big body.

Cant knock the youth movement. Good practice player.

55 pages incoming for a 23 year old journeyman player. Do we need to cut someone to make this signing?

So this means that a trade is coming... or the other Noah is getting bought out soon.

How many years?

What's his wingspan?

I was just writing a post that we needed one more big body.

Theoretically a great fit with KP when healthy because he can get out and guard 4's while still being a decent rebounder. He flashed a little bit of a jumper but the key is for him to get more consistent offensively.

7'4 he should be a much better defender than he has been. He is a good rebounder but very little offensive skill.

I'm truly surprised.

A good risk to take. Vonleh showed some good signs, despite also showing a lot of youthful inconsistency. Worth a flier. Eventually, one of these low risks will stick.

Oh so that's why we cut Troy

A wealthy man’s Hicks?

Still have too many guarantees.

Agreed. He has quick feet for his size.

He's a beanpole. Rich man's Balkman.

Vonleh is a good hustle dude to bide the time while Robinson gets developed.

This probably means Hicks will not make the roster which is fine by me 8-)

Pretty much this. Only issue is, even if one of these guys does play well, do we use our 2019 space to sign them? I guess if the deal is too good to pass up. Should be at least fun this season seeing which of these young guys actually plays well.
