New York accelerates toward a title run by stacking veteran guard depth behind Jalen Brunson. Malcolm Brogdon and Landry Shamet joined camp on non-guaranteed deals and could land guaranteed spots, potentially by trading youngsters like Pacome Dadiet or Kolek to stay under the second apron. If kept, they provide reliable backcourt versatility, playoff experience, and defensive grit; even without guaranteed deals, the Knicks look poised for a strong run with injuries forcing East open.
