The New York Knicks have been one of the best teams in the NBA this season, currently up 3-1 in their first round playoff series against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Despite being plagued by injuries throughout the season, they are the second seed in the Eastern Conference and have a record of 50-32.
Many superstars are always tied to the Knicks, as it is highly desirable to play in New York City (Madison Square Garden).
on monday, ESPN's Stephen A. Smith (upon first take) revealed that Devin Booker is a player who wants to join the Knicks.
Smith: “Devin Booker wants to go to New York. That's what I've been told. He may deny it now, but I haven't talked to him.”
Booker finished his ninth season in the NBA, averaging 27.1 points, 4.5 rebounds, and 6.9 assists per game on 49.2 percent shooting from the field and 36.4 percent from 3-point range in 68 games.
The Suns were supposed to be the favorites, but they were the sixth seed in the Western Conference and were swept by the Minnesota Timberwolves in the first round of the NBA Playoffs.

Booker was drafted 13th overall in the 2015 NBA Draft out of Kentucky and spent his entire career with the Suns.
For the first half of his tenure, they were one of the worst teams in the league.
However, the franchise has reached the NBA Playoffs in each of the past four seasons and reached the Finals in 2021.
