Mitch gets 25 minutes.

Huk gets a good 10-15 minutes of solid backup.

Nnaji will be a project, I’m betting he’ll be like a giant version of a young Sims, which won’t be entirely useless given rim protection, but probably not getting any real minutes until at least halfway through the season.

KAT plays center for 10+ minutes in some kind of five-out formation. More if it is working.

And it’s actually quite unusual that a European draft and stash actually comes over and plays.

Any bets on summer team coach?

He’s already in New York and working out with the Knicks, his agent, Gerard Raventos, told The Post.

Nnaji expects to be with the team at Summer League in Las Vegas with a chance to make the roster.

“Hopefully after [the Summer League], we can reach an agreement,” Raventos said. “That’s the plan, from both sides. It’s 50/50, it depends how he does. He’s coming in great shape. … Everything will be based on his performances in the Summer League.”

James Nnaji, whose draft rights Knicks got in KAT deal, has told Barcelona he wants to leave & pursue the NBA

Nnaji, 6’11” 20-year-old with a 7’5″ wingspan, known as a mobile rim protector

Drafted 31st in 2023 with “some of the best physical tools of any prospect in this class”

a trade involving james nnaji when he was 13 years old how is that even possible:

June 21, 2018: Traded by the Detroit Pistons (as a future 2023 2nd round draft pick) with a 2021 2nd round draft pick (Jeremiah Robinson-Earl was later selected) to the Philadelphia 76ers for Khyri Thomas.
