New York Knicks have added veteran wing John Konchar to their championship roster on Monday night. The 30-year-old guard/wing agreed to a one-year deal, beating out Eastern Conference teams like Miami and Orlando. Konchar's agent, George S. Langberg, confirmed the agreement with ESPN's Shams Charania. The move strengthens New York's perimeter options and gives the team another experienced player to build around after winning their first championship in 53 years.
Konchar, who spent most of his first seven NBA seasons with Memphis, averaged 5.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 3.0 assists in 26.2 minutes during his time with Utah. He has also recorded two triple-doubles down the stretch. Despite not having a guaranteed rotation role, Konchar brings valuable depth and versatility to the Knicks' lineup.
