Jordan Clarkson Embraces New Role And Culture With New York Knicks

Jordan Clarkson signed a one-year, $3.9 million veteran-minimum deal to return to the New York Knicks, bypassing other interest to rejoin the team. Entering his ninth season, the 34-year-old guard scored seven points in nine minutes during a preseason loss to the Wizards. Facing a crowded backcourt behind Landry Shamet, Jose Alvarado, and Miles McBride, Clarkson understands his path to playing time centers on defense and rebounding rather than his traditional volume-scoring role off the bench.
