Marc Gasol will be one of the biggest free agents this upcoming offseason and the New York Knicks have their sights set on him. There’s been conflicting reports that Gasol has already ruled the Knicks out while Marc himself says he hasn’t ruled anyone out because he’s not focused on free agency right now. The Memphis Grizzlies are facing the tough Golden State Warriors in the Western Conference semis so I don’t blame him for his mind being else where. In any event, the Knicks are patiently waiting but Gasol’s Grizzlies’ teammate and former Knick, Beno Udrih says New York has no chance of getting him.
“They’re (Knicks) not going to get him,” said Udrih according to NBA writer Jared Zwerling. “Marc is a laid-back guy, he doesn’t like drama”.
Sounds like Udrih sent some shots towards his former team. Beno averaged 5.6 points and 3.5 assists in 19 minutes over 31 appearances with the Knicks before he was released by the team in February of 2014.
