The New York Knicks don't have any current players in the Paris Olympics, but there are some former flames competing.
The Paris Olympics start today but the New York Knicks won't be competing. Instead, there are a couple of former Knicks that will be taking part with their respective countries.Barrett, the No. 3 overall pick from the 2019 NBA Draft, was with the Knicks from the start of his career until Dec. 2023, when he was traded to his hometown Toronto Raptors for OG Anunoby and Precious Achiuwa.
Slowly but surely, Fournier walked out of the rotation and eventually out of town when he was traded to the Detroit Pistons back in February for Bojan Bogdanovic and Alec Burks.Like Barrett, Ntilikina was also a high draft pick by the Knicks, going No. 8 overall in the 2017 NBA Draft. Ntilikina played four seasons with the Knicks, never averaging more than 6.3 points per game. He spent two years with the Dallas Mavericks and played five games with the Charlotte Hornets this season before he was waived in February.The oldest player on this list, Hernangomez played with the Knicks from 2016-18. He was selected with the No. 35 overall pick in 2015 by the Philadelphia 76ers, but his rights were dealt to the Knicks on draft night.
