Free agency tipped off today. Here’s the New York Post with a report that the Knicks are about to add a solid rotation player:
The Knicks’ free-agent foray got off to a slow start, but they made one signing Friday, grabbing swingman Alec Burks on a one-year, $6 million deal, according to a source.
Burks started his career at Utah, where new Knicks assistant GM Walt Perrin drafted him in the first round in 2011. A journeyman, Burks played with the Sixers and Warriors last season but he’s a scorer.
