Part 3/6:
The New York Knicks have faced challenges on the defensive front, making Kiki's improved defense a valuable asset. His ability to get steals and engage actively on defense could fill the gaps in the current roster. With the Knicks struggling to find reliable contributors defensively, Kiki might provide them with the support they need while providing an offensive spark.
An analysis of the Knicks' current bench roster, specifically examining Matt Ryan, has raised questions about his utility. Ryan's lack of defensive skills and limited rotation opportunities makes one wonder whether waving him could free up a spot for a more impactful player like Kiki, who can step in and make a difference.
