Knicks wanted to sign Andrew Bynum

Here’s the New York Post reporting on center Andrew Bynum, who the Knicks reportedly tried to add to their roster. The talented Bynum has struggled with injuries and some head issues. But when healthy and focused, he’s a force in the middle.

The Knicks made a strong late push to sign center Andrew Bynum before he chose the Pacers, his agent told The Post Saturday.

Knicks personnel director Mark Warkentien tried to arrange a meeting with Bynum and the Knicks staff, but it never materialized.

“The Knicks were very aggressive in the end,” his New York-based agent David Lee told The Post. “In the end, they did everything they could.”

The Knicks only had the veteran’s minimum to offer, which pro-rated would have been $550,000.
