Knicks find another promising young prospect
The Knicks had sophomores Obi Toppin and Immanuel Quickley on the roster but they have had other promising players from the Summer League. Earlier, it was Miles McBride but in this one, it was Quentin Grimes.
The 6-foot 5 rookie guard top-scored in the Knicks' final Summer League game including six 3-pointers.
