Assistant coach Carson Shanks will not return to the New York Knicks for the upcoming season, as his contract has expired.
Shanks spent the last three years with the team, most recently serving as the assistant director of video/analytics and player development. He also worked with the team's big men during warmups.
"3 years of the Mecca, 3 years of the City, 3 years of being a New York Knick, and most importantly, 3 years of Memories and Relationships that’ll never go away," Shanks posted on Instagram. "The Garden shaking and sharing it with family, the sounds of the city during the parade, the taste of that champagne, the feel of the Larry O’Brien trophy, things I’ll have forever."
He added, "SO excited for what is next, but thank you New York for 3 of the best years of my life."
All of head coach Mike Brown's front-of-the-bench assistants are expected to remain with the team. Some additional changes further down the coaching staff may still occur.
