NY Knicks: 5 Superstars who could force trades to NY

NY Knicks trade target #4 – Bradley Beal

I think the likelihood of Bradley Beal coming to the Knicks might be the highest of everyone on this list.

As mentioned previously, World Wide Wes allegedly has the ear of some who are close to Beal and is asking them to push for a trade to New York.

We’ve visited the idea of what it would take to snag Bradley Beal here at Daily Knicks before and it would certainly be a lot to give up in exchange for the Wizards, but you could argue that Beal is the 2nd best player on this list only behind Damian Lillard.

Not only that, but I think a player like Bradley Beal would be the perfect complement to a guy like Julius Randle.

Beal has been very ball-dominant throughout his career but has also shown the ability to play off-ball very well throughout his years playing next to John Wall.

With Randle’s sudden ability to shoot the 3-ball at a very high clip, my mouth is watering at the idea of a pick-and-roll/pop combo between Beal and Julius Randle.

Frankly, it may rival some of the best combinations we have in the league, such as Anthony Davis and LeBron James, Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray, and Ben Simmons and Joel Embiid.

Adding Bradley Beal’s 33 points per game onto a Knicks offense that currently ranks in the bottom-10 of the league would help elevate it potentially into the top-15 seemingly overnight.
