New York Knicks Summer League 2021 Roster, Dates and Complete Schedule

The New York Knicks have been the talk of the town lately, as they have been one of the busiest teams in the ongoing 2021 NBA offseason. The Knicks will go into the 2021-22 season with a new-look backcourt, which will feature Kemba Walker and France international Evan Fournier.

However, before that, the New York Knicks will participate in the Summer League which is set to be held in Las Vegas. With the crowds returning to NBA arenas in some capacity, fans will be treated to some tantalizing summer basketball.

Ahead of the summer league, let's take a look at the New York Knicks' schedule and roster.

The New York Knicks have a relatively young roster that will be looking to impress in the summer league. The Knicks have improved on multiple fronts this offseason, and fans can expect them to make a deep playoff run this time around under Tom Thibodeau's tutelage.

RJ Barrett and Julius Randle were mighty impressive last season, as Barrett took a leap and Randle made the All-NBA team. They were outclassed in the postseason by eventual Eastern Conference finalists Atlanta Hawks, but Fournier and Walker's addition will help the side massively on the offensive front.
