In this episode of the Locked on Fantasy Basketball podcast, host Josh Lloyd and guest Gavin Schall from the Locked on Knicks podcast discuss the New York Knicks' off-season moves and their implications for the upcoming season. A significant focus is on the addition of Mikal Bridges, a key acquisition for the Knicks.

Bridges, who struggled as the number one option in Brooklyn, is expected to thrive in a more balanced role with the Knicks. The discussion highlights how Bridges' efficiency is likely to improve as he won't need to carry the offensive load alone. They explore whether Bridges will resemble his high-efficiency, low-usage role from his Phoenix days or if he'll find a middle ground between his Phoenix and Brooklyn performances.

The episode also delves into the Knicks' overall team dynamics, including the impact of losing Isaiah Hartenstein and how the team plans to fill that gap. They discuss the potential for small-ball lineups and the crucial role of Julius Randle in the team's success.

Tune in to hear their insights on how Mikal Bridges and other off-season changes could shape the Knicks' season, both from a fantasy and real-life perspective. Whether you're a Knicks fan or a fantasy basketball enthusiast, this episode offers a comprehensive look at what to expect from New York in the 2024-25 NBA season.
