The Knicks are the favorites to land MVP center

The New York Knicks have reportedly shown considerable interest in MVP and Philadelphia 76ers superstar, Joel Embiid. Despite a coaching change and James Harden’s likely departure from the 76ers, Embiid has not yet made a decisive move.

Embiid’s championship aspirations align well with the Knicks’ current potential under Jalen Brunson’s leadership. His relationship with former agent Leon Rose, now the Knicks’ president, only bolsters the speculation. Rose has impressively built a team that could reach deep into the postseason.

While the Knicks are poised to remain patient, waiting for the opportune deal to materialize, it seems their strategy may also involve waiting for Embiid’s decision.
