Knicks Explore Trade Options to Boost Roster

The New York Knicks have started their 2024-25 NBA season poorly, currently at 5-6 after a loss to the Chicago Bulls. To improve their bench scoring, the Knicks are exploring trades, with proposals including the acquisition of young guard Tre Mann from the Charlotte Hornets. Additionally, there are suggestions that the Knicks should trade Cameron Payne for sharpshooter Seth Curry, who could enhance their bench performance. Meanwhile, the Charlotte Hornets, having a solid start to their season led by LaMelo Ball, are considering adding All-Star Brandon Ingram from the New Orleans Pelicans to bolster their roster. Ingram's potential move would align with Charlotte's goal of transitioning from rebuilding to contention. Conversely, the Pelicans, despite injury woes, are looking for a strong interior defender, potentially targeting Isaiah Stewart from the Detroit Pistons to address their rebounding deficiencies.
