The New York Knicks signed veterans John Konchar and Drew Eubanks to one-year deals as they finalize their roster for the 2026-27 season. Both players will compete for a single remaining standard contract slot due to salary cap constraints. Konchar offers defensive versatility, while Eubanks provides size at center, though neither is guaranteed a spot on the Opening Night roster.
John Konchar signed with the New York Knicks on Tuesday, ending discussions with the Miami Heat. The Heat never made a formal offer, prioritizing flexibility for the buyout market. Meanwhile, Tre White joined an NCAA eligibility lawsuit, delaying his decision to sign an Exhibit 10 deal with Miami.
The Knicks are weighing defensive-minded veterans Drew Eubanks and John Konchar for final roster spots, per Ian Begley. Eubanks would add size and depth at center but battled injuries last season and would likely sign a non-guaranteed deal, while Konchar, a versatile wings/forward, is known for rebounding, defense and perimeter shooting after being waived by Minnesota. New York currently has 13 guaranteed contracts and is expected to start the season with 14 standard deals due to the second tax apron, with extension chatter centering on Towns and Hart and less likelihood for Miles McBride.
In an offseason roster move, the Timberwolves will send Josh Green and cash to Utah in exchange for Cody Williams and John Konchar; Minnesota intends to keep Williams and waive-and-stretch Konchar, while Utah adds a 3-and-D wing and the cash helps balance the deal.
