Knicks Free Agency: Jordan Clarkson Intends to Sign with New York After Jazz Buyout, per Reports
- Jordan Clarkson agreed to a buyout with the Utah Jazz on Monday, making him an unrestricted free agent expected to sign with the New York Knicks.
- The buyout came as Utah rebuilds its roster, including trading Collin Sexton for Jusuf Nurkic and waiving Johnny Juzang, signaling a shift away from veteran players like Clarkson.
- At 33 years old, Clarkson contributed an average of 16.2 points and 3.7 assists across 37 games last season, providing valuable scoring depth off the bench to address the Knicks' previously low bench production.

- Clarkson's addition aims to deepen the Knicks' bench scoring, supporting their core group as they build on a recent conference finals appearance and look to strengthen for the 2025-26 season.
