The New York Knicks are reportedly set to sign veteran wing Matt Ryan to a contract this week, according to Shams Charania of ESPN. This follows an earlier report by Ian Begley from SNY, who highlighted the Knicks’ “strong mutual interest” in Ryan and noted that the team had internally discussed signing him as early as last month. Alongside their interest in Ryan, Begley mentioned that the Knicks had also considered re-signing guard Landry Shamet.
This move comes as the Knicks work to meet the NBA’s minimum roster requirement of 14 players under standard contracts by Tuesday. New York started the season with 12 players on such contracts, but with the recent addition of Ariel Hukporti and the impending signing of Ryan, the Knicks are set to comply with the league’s roster regulations.
