The buzz around this potential trade was highlighted by Craig Carton on his Fox Sports 1 show on Monday. Carton shared insights into the Knicks’ front office strategies, specifically their ambition to enhance their frontcourt lineup.

While a trade for Davis is uncertain and might face numerous hurdles, the Knicks are not sitting idle. They have actively engaged in discussions involving Robinson and have reportedly spoken to several teams, including the Washington Wizards, about potential trades for their center.
