Top Storylines and highlights

Knicks find another promising young prospect

The Knicks had sophomores Obi Toppin and Immanuel Quickley on the roster but they have had other promising players from the Summer League. Earlier, it was Miles McBride but in this one, it was Quentin Grimes.

The 6-foot 5 rookie guard top-scored in the Knicks' final Summer League game including six 3-pointers.

Troy Baxter Jr. who?

Remember the name! 

Baxter Jr., a 6-foot 9 forward out of Morgan State, went undrafted in the 2021 NBA Draft but he was always one to watch out for.
