Honorable Mention: DaJuan Summers

Even though there are three players featured on this list, there are a couple of players that deserve to be mentioned.

DaJuan Summers is one of those players. His sample size of games was small. He was added to the team via the 2014 Expansion Draft. Instead of going to the Westchester Knicks for their inaugural season, Summers joined Gran Canaria of the Liga ACB (Spain).

The following year, the New York Knicks signed the Georgetown product. After appearing in four preseason games, he was waived by the team. 10 days later, Westchester acquired him as an affiliate player.

DaJuan Summers started off the 2015-16 season on a great note. During the first three games of the season, he averaged 25.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 2.0 steals in 39.0 minutes per game. Early on, without Jimmer Fredette, Summers was an important piece on the team’s offense.

He was awarded the D-League’s Performer of the Week for the first week of the 2015-16 season, which was also the first time a Westchester Knicks player received that award.

The 6’8” forward suffered a dreadful injury in his third game. He suffered a left Achilles tendon injury and was ruled out for the season. Several days later, he was waived by the team.

If DaJuan Summers didn’t miss the season due to injury, there’s a good chance that he would have received a call-up later on during the season.
