Clarkson was the 46th pick in the 2014 NBA Draft.
During the 2021 season, he won the 6th Man of The Year Award (with Utah).
Via Dylan Backer of Empire Sports Media: "Jordan Clarkson has been arguably the best bench scorer since joining the Utah Jazz in 2019. Since that season:
4,589 total points (most in NBA)
880 3PM
43% FG | 34% 3PT | 84% FT
2021 6MOY
He will provide a major spark for the Knicks’ bench."
The Knicks already have an elite roster led by Jalen Brunson and Karl-Antony Towns.
Clarkson could help the have one of the deepest rosters in the NBA for the 2025-26 season.
