Despite owner James Dolan's mandate to stay under the NBA's second luxury tax apron, the New York Knicks are still considering re-signing guard Jordan Clarkson. A source confirmed to The Post that Clarkson's return is “still a possibility” as he approaches unrestricted free agency on Tuesday.
Clarkson, 34, completed one season with the Knicks, which concluded with a championship. However, his playing time throughout the season was inconsistent. He was temporarily removed from the rotation midway through the season but later earned his way back into a reserve role, impressing the team with his professionalism. Notably, his defensive performance became a significant factor in him remaining on the floor, a surprising development given his established reputation as a prolific scorer.
