2× All-Defensive

A premier 3-and-D wing and the Knicks' defensive anchor on the perimeter, an All-Defensive Second Team pick whose 86th-percentile perimeter defense lets him erase opposing stars. He's quietly efficient on offense too — 16.7 a game on 38.6% from deep and 62% true shooting — while almost never turning it over in his role.

Seasons from Basketball-Reference (2023-24 → 2025-26). Production is box plus-minus, a per-possession measure. Value is VORP-based wins, so it also counts games played. Contract value is what each season’s play would fetch on the open market. The dotted 2026-27 point is a forecast: his established level, a year older, assuming a normal season.
