Lieberman, a Hall of Famer who coached men in the N.B.A., will take over Clyde Drexler’s old team in Ice Cube’s three-on-three league.

In his 12th season, Redick painstakingly plans everything from his naps to his shots. It’s helped him steady a 76ers team that is poised to reach the playoffs again.

MIAMI — The Knicks won’t run the table. Their two-game win streak was snapped in South Beach as the playoff-bound Heat blew out the Knicks, 119-98, at AmericanAirlines Arena. Count it down: Just 10 games remain to this melancholy campaign — and perhaps Jeff Hornacek’s coaching life. Worse than the defeat, the Knicks’ two neophyte…

A lot would have to happen for the Knicks and Trae Young to be a draft match, but if that opportunity comes the Oklahoma star would embrace it. “If I was able to be drafted by the Knicks, it’d be a blessing,” Young said on ESPN’s “First Take” Wednesday morning. “That’s the mecca, that’s one…

MIAMI – Jeff Hornacek said he thinks the Knicks should at least explore addressing the structural flaw in their roster in June’s draft by acquiring a natural small forward. After trading Carmelo Anthony, the Knicks never brought in a starting small forward. That left Hornacek to play Tim Hardaway Jr. at small forward with Courtney…

MIAMI — Jeff Hornacek’s future as Knicks coach may be uncertain, but he made clear what direction the team needs to go to upgrade the roster: Get a true small forward.

Tim Hardaway Jr. said he goes to sleep every night thinking about what if. What if he never got hurt and missed six weeks of games with a stress injury in his left leg? What if Kristaps Porzingis hadn’t torn his ACL?

Kelly Olynyk scored 22 points and handed out a career-high 10 assists, Tyler Johnson added 22 points and the Miami Heat had little trouble on the way to beating the New York Knicks 119-98 on Wednesday night.

Whether Jeff Hornacek returns the Knicks next season is irrelevant. At the moment, he’s still the head coach and in his eyes, he believes one thing the club is sorely lacking is a genuine small forward.

The Miami Heat are coming off an incredible double-overtime win in which they set a franchise record by scoring 149 points, and now they face a team that has only recently shown signs of life after nine straight defeats.

Now that Trae Young has officially declared for the NBA Draft, Knicks fans can officially dream of landing the player who has been called a young Steph Curry.

Let’s take a look at a few of the top candidates and who might make sense.

With the Knicks once again in the dumps as the regular season comes to an end, it appears a change at head coach is bound to happen.

As the Knicks disappointing season comes to an end, some players on the team are playing for contracts next season. And F Isaiah Hicks is making a good case for himself.

Jeff Hornacek may not be here next season, but he has a recommendation for what the front office should focus on.

Mark Jackson, Doc Rivers, David Blatt, Jerry Stackhouse and Dave Fizdale all have something in common besides NBA head coaching experience.

Youth was served and gorged.

Trae Young declared Wednesday that his season in the spotlight equipped him for the pressure cooker in New York City.
