What happened: John Konchar has agreed to a one-year contract with the New York Knicks, with agent George S. Langberg informing ESPN of the deal. The move gives Konchar a landing spot less than three weeks after he cleared waivers and became a free agent.
Why it matters: New York had already been working through the back end of its roster after agreeing to an Exhibit 10 deal with Igor Milicic Jr. on Sept. 13. A one-year term adds another forward option for the Knicks as they head into their 2026-27 title defense.
What to watch: The next marker is when the Knicks make the deal official and whether it closes their final standard roster opening before camp.
