Confirm leaving the team! Goodbye, New York Knicks

There is no doubt that the Eastern giants New York Knicks are the team that has performed the most eye-catching in the free market recently, no doubt about it! In the past 48 hours, the Knicks have completely killed the Knicks in the signing market! Because they signed a total of three people in one go, this move can be said to be a very lively free market that has been silent for a long time. According to previous reports, the New York Knicks first successfully signed scorers Landry Shamet and Garrison Matthewson, and then quickly signed Warriors' idiot defender Malcolm Brogdon.

Judging from the series of operations of the New York Knicks this summer, their goal for the new season is very clear, that is, to strive for the championship with all their might! Especially with the veteran Celtics and Eastern Conference champion Indiana Pacers all withdrawing from the championship, this allows the Knicks to see the best time to compete for the Eastern Conference championship and even the championship in the new season. Therefore, the New York Knicks will be working hard to create a championship lineup this summer!

Of course, the Knicks' active recruitment and reinforcement will inevitably make the players in the team who are no longer in line with the team's development leave! Little did they know that Cameron Payne, who played for the New York Knicks last season, is now one of them.

According to New York Knicks reporter Stefan Bondy, defender Cameron Payne will not return to the New York Knicks next season. Stefan Bondy said that considering the development of the New York Knicks this offseason, it is not surprising that Cameron Payne’s departure will be! In the 2024-25 season, Cameron Payne played 72 regular season games for the New York Knicks, averaging 15.1 minutes per game, scoring 6.9 points, 1.4 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 0.5 steals and 0.2 blocks, shooting percentage of 40.1%, three-point shooting percentage of 36.3%, and free throw shooting percentage of 90.7%.

14 playoff games, averaged 7.3 minutes per game, contributed 2.1 points, 0.6 rebounds, 0.6 assists, 0.4 steals, and 0.1 blocks. His shooting percentage was 32.4%, his three-point shooting percentage was 23.8%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 33.3%.

As the Knicks' second-line guard last season, Payne's overall performance is hard to satisfy! Therefore, this is probably the fundamental reason why he was abandoned by the Knicks. Now that Payne has decided to leave the New York Knicks, it means that Payne has another defender in the free market while losing his job.

So, can this 10-year-old 31-year-old veteran find a new boss before the start of the new season training camp? You should know that Wan'er, like Westbrook, a triple-double king in history, has not found her next home yet.

From this we can see that Cameron Payne's current employment prospects seem to be less optimistic! I don’t know if the Golden State Warriors, who have missed signing guard Malcolm Brogden, will consider signing Cameron Payne next? After all, Payne is the defender on the field, which is the type of player that Warriors general manager Dunleavy likes to sign. What do you think about this?
