The New York Knicks are signing veteran center Andre Drummond to fill the roster spot left by Mitchell Robinson after Robinson agrees to a three-year deal with the Boston Celtics. Multiple reports say the Knicks and Drummond reach an agreement for a one-year contract valued at about $3.9 million, with sources indicating it is designed to provide depth behind Karl-Anthony Towns. CBS Sports characterizes the deal as a comparatively low-cost replacement relative to what Robinson received from Boston, noting a significant dollar difference between the two contracts. The Athletic also reports that New York is bringing Drummond in as Robinson’s replacement. Additional coverage frames Drummond as an experienced rebounder and a potential backup center, projecting that he will come off the bench during the Knicks’ title-defense season. Separate outlets also include quotes and commentary from Drummond, reflecting his excitement about joining a team he grew up supporting and his expectation to contribute to the roster’s interior support.
