The Knicks have agreed to terms with Chuma Okeke, who struggled with injuries but showed potential. His efficiency is a concern at just 38.3% shooting from the field and 31.8% from three-point range.
Okeke, a former Auburn standout and 16th pick in the 2019 draft, is known for his untapped potential despite setbacks from an ACL tear. He delayed signing his rookie contract to recover.
Okeke excelled in the 2021-22 season with the Magic, averaging 8.6 points and 5.0 rebounds per game. His journey from high school standout to NBA player showcases resilience and potential.
The terms of Okeke's deal with the Knicks are not confirmed, but it is speculated to be around the vet minimum or a partially guaranteed contract, considering the team's salary cap situation.
