Knicks Sign Former Princeton Star Tosan Evbuomwan Ahead Training Camp

The New York Knicks have signed former Princeton star and 2024-25 Brooklyn Nets forward Tosan Evbuomwan ahead of training camp, with the expectation he may secure one of the team's three available two-way contracts. Evbuomwan, a 6-foot-7 forward who led Princeton to the Sweet 16 in 2023 and earned Ivy League Player of the Year honors, averaged 9.5 points and 4.3 rebounds over 28 games last season with the Nets. His signing adds wing depth behind Mikal Bridges, O.G. Anunoby, and Josh Hart, although his limited three-point shooting may hinder securing a standard roster spot. The Knicks also brought back guard Landry Shamet on a one-year deal with minimal guarantees, joining newly signed Malcolm Brogdon and Garrison Mathews in a competition for limited roster spots. The team's roster decisions may include trades involving Pacôme Dadiet or Miles McBride to accommodate these new signings. Additionally, the Knicks are evaluating several other players, including Dennis Smith Jr., Alex Len, Trey Jemison, and Matt Ryan, during training camp preparations.
