The Knicks have not won at home since Dec. 1, and the crowd Monday — clearly bored by another blowout defeat — started chanting for Raymond Felton.

Talk about desperation.

Felton was the starting point guard for the Knicks during their successful run in 2012-13, but he is also known for his gun…

Enes Kanter was told by the Knicks that he’s falling even further on the depth chart – or, in his words, “being shut down” – increasing the tension before the inevitable divorce.

“It’s tough because they’re trying to give the young guys a lot of minutes and get them better but it’s not like I’m…

About an hour after practice finished Sunday — as the coaches emerged from the locker room, bundled up and on their way out to the bitter New York winter — Frank Ntilikina was still on the court with an assistant, training to a hip-hop soundtrack he pumped into the facility’s speakers.

While working…

Consider the cheeseburger controversy over.

According to Enes Kanter, his absence from two games earlier this month was the result of a stomach bug, not overeating.

Last week, the center posted a picture of himself getting ready to chow down on 13 burgers on his ‘cheat day.’ He missed practice…

Knicks center Enes Kanter expressed his displeasure with being demoted in the playing rotation with head coach David Fizdale wanting to prioritize playing time for younger players.

Current Rockets and former Knicks forward Carmelo Anthony will reportedly be traded to the Chicago Bulls and then released.

After falling flat in the first quarter, the Knicks got within 15 before halftime. But a third and fourth-quarter slump saw Paul George and the Knicks pull out a 127-109 win at Madison Square Garden on Monday afternoon.

The latest Knicks loss was Friday’s 121-106 defeat to Indiana.

Knicks center Enes Kanter is disappointed and doesn’t agree with head coach David Fizdale’s decision to remove him from the rotation.

The former All-Star is not expected to ever play for Chicago, but Houston enticed the Bulls to accept the trade by covering some of his salary.

David Fizdale’s commitment to the Knicks’ youth movement is a good thing for Frank Ntilikina, not so much for Enes Kanter. In the aftermath of the Knicks’ 127-109 loss to the Thunder on Monday afternoon at the Garden, one player was speaking optimistically about the remaining part of the season, while another was wondering about…

Knicks center Enes Kanter, putting aside his mounting issues with his homeland of Turkey, admits he’s starting to change his tune on his future in New York after a heart-to-heart with coach David Fizdale. Fizdale said before the Knicks’ 127-109 blowout loss to the Thunder on Martin Luther King Day that his priority for the…

The Knicks should have stayed in London for the holiday. In their first game back from England, the Knicks put forth a sickening outing, even by their self-admittedly low, tanking standards. The Thunder administered a wire-to-wire 127-109 rout on Martin Luther King Day that had their orange-clad players all but laughing on the Garden floor…
