Alec Burks exceeding Knicks’ wildest expectations
NY Post
DALLAS — The only mistake Knicks president Leon Rose made during free agency this past November was not giving Alec Burks a two-year deal.

His biggest competition, Jordan Clarkson, plays for the same Jazz outfit with which Burks spent the first 7½ seasons of his NBA career, much of it under the radar. The Knicks signed Burks as a bench scorer and he has exceeded their wildest expectations in pulling out some games in the final period with his feathery shot.More Related News
