Demetris Nichols, von den Knicks gedraftet, eine Option für die Celtics?
[Newsday]
Something to consider: Demetris Nichols on the Celtics.
It could happen if the Knicks can't find a place for him on the roster at the end of training camp. Nichols and his new agent have made it clear to the Knicks that Nichols has no interest in playing in Europe this season and will be an NBA player this season either in New York or elsewhere.

Nichols' immediate future remains with the Knicks. His situation will work like this: in the coming week or two, D-Nick will sign a one-year deal with the Knicks at a very affordable second-round scale. He'll go into training camp to compete for a spot.
Let's say the report is accurate and Dan Dickau's expiring contract is about to get waived in a few days, the Knicks are still one player over the roster limit. Isiah Thomas will have to make a decision: cut a vet and eat a bad contract or let Nichols and his sweet stroke go free to be picked up on waivers by any other NBA team. Watch him join the Boston Three Party.
