The New York Knicks are reportedly shopping center Jericho Sims ahead of next month’s trade deadline. According to Stefan Bondy, multiple sources confirmed the team’s efforts to explore potential deals involving the 26-year-old big man.
Sims is currently averaging 1.7 points and 3.6 rebounds in 11.6 minutes per game this season. Despite limited production, his athleticism and defensive potential may attract interest from teams looking to bolster their frontcourt depth.
Bondy clarified in his report that Sims’ absence from the lineup is due to injury and unrelated to trade discussions. Sims has been sidelined in recent games, but the Knicks’ decision to shop him aligns with their broader strategy to evaluate roster adjustments.
The center is in the final year of a three-year, $5.6 million contract, which included a team option for the current season. New York exercised that option, making Sims a cost-effective piece for teams seeking a low-risk addition to their roster.
