The New York Knicks are hopeful of signing a new All-Star point guard this summer, and a number of the current roster is likely to make way. Among them is 20-year-old guard Frank Ntilikina, and Joe Pantorno of Metro Bet believes that the Magic are in contention to secure his signature:

Ntilikina's name came up in trade talks before the NBA's February deadline, but the Knicks were unable to get anything done despite interest from multiple teams.

The Orlando Magic and Phoenix Suns were just two of the teams linked to Ntilikina around the trade deadline and could circle back once again next month. Orlando acquired Markelle Fultz last season, but adding Ntilikina could provide some youthful insurance should the former No. 1 pick's progress continue to stall.

Ntilikina was selected by the Knicks with the 8th pick in the 2017 draft. During his two seasons with the team, he has appeared in 121 games, averaging 5.9 points, 2.8 assists and 2.0 rebounds per game.
