Kristaps Porzingis, concerned about the future of the New York Knicks, has left team officials with the impression that he wants to be traded, sources told ESPN.
All-Star forward Kristaps Porzingis says he'll put his trust in the Knicks' front office to hire the next head coach, and that he wants to remain in New York long term.
The Knicks dismissed coach Jeff Hornacek after two seasons in which the team went 60-104, the sixth-worst record in the NBA over that stretch.

Kristaps Porzingis' ACL tear was the knockout blow to a lost season in New York. Now a franchise in flux could look drastically different once the All-Star big man is ready to return to action.
The Knicks firmly believe that All-Star forward Kristaps Porzingis will return to form when he recovers from his torn ACL, but in the meantime, they must change course in how they approach the trade deadline and free agency.
