Knicks’ familiarity with Tony Bradley could give him an edge in training camp battle

The New York Knicks have signed center Tony Bradley to a non-guaranteed Exhibit 9 deal as they hold a training camp battle for their final roster spot. Daily Knicks writer Kenny Kluska argues that New York's familiarity with Bradley could give him an advantage over other candidates, noting the team faced him in consecutive postseason runs with the Indiana Pacers and Atlanta Hawks.

New York is evaluating third-center options behind Karl-Anthony Towns and Andre Drummond while staying below the second apron on a veteran's minimum deal. Bradley is competing with fellow centers Drew Eubanks and James Wiseman, with Kluska highlighting Bradley's offensive rebounding rate and past high-effort playoff minutes as key factors in his favor.
