The New York Knicks’ Summer League team should offer fans plenty to watch this year.
The Knicks announced their Summer League roster on Thursday, and the roster includes all four of the Knicks’ 2024 draft picks: Pacome Dadiet, Tyler Kolek, Kevin McCullar and Ariel Hukporti.
It is important to note that not all rookies participate in the Summer League.
Additionally, 2021 second-round draft pick Rokas Jokuaitis will join the team, three years after being drafted by the team. He has played in Spain since briefly playing in the Summer League in 2021.
There are a few other names that may be familiar to Knicks fans. Jacob Toppin, Obi Toppin’s brother and a 2023-24 backup, will play. And a few members of the Knicks’ G League team, the Westchester Knicks, will play, including Duane Washington Jr., Obadiah Noel and Dmytro Skapintsev.
