With the Knicks seemingly having a realistic chance to compete for a title, they may look to further improve their roster by making one or more trades during the season.

One of the most likely candidates to be traded is fan-favorite guard Miles McBride.

NBA writer Sam Amico of HoopsWire believes McBride is the odd man out for the Knicks next year, especially after the signing of fellow guard Jordan Clarkson this offseason.

"For the Knicks, Miles McBride is a good player who sometimes can be the odd man out in a minutes crunch," Amico wrote. "That probably won’t improve after Jordan Clarkson signed on. That makes McBride the name to watch here."

McBride averaged an impressive 9.5 points, 2.9 assists, and 2.5 rebounds in 64 games last season, his fourth with the Knicks.

The 24-year-old guard still has two years remaining on his contract with the Knicks, worth around $8.3 million.
