No. 3 Markelle Fultz

Markelle Fultz is healthy and is an unrestricted free agent. He seemed to have resurrected his career with the Orlando Magic over the last two seasons but didn’t get an offer once his contract expired.

At a veteran’s minimum, the New York Knicks could make use of his playmaking and ability to put pressure on defenses with his drives.

No. 2 Reggie Bullock

Reggie Bullock hardly played last season with the Houston Rockets, as the team prioritized the development of their young players. Bullock is solid on defense and shot 40.3% from deep last season. He's a playoff veteran who could provide depth to the New York Knicks’ backcourt and wings.


No. 1 Justin Holiday

Justin Holiday had a solid run with the Denver Nuggets last season. He had Nuggets coach Mike Malone’s trust even in the playoffs where he was a valuable 3-and-D contributor.

Holiday’s main assignment was to guard the opposing team’s best perimeter player and launch the occasional 3-pointer on the other end.

Tom Thibodeau loves players who can defend, shoot and run the floor. Holiday has everything the Knicks coach look for in players.
