Rockets Forward Recalls Welcome to the NBA Moments With Giannis Antetokounmpo originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Houston Rockets forward Jabari Smith Jr. recalled the moment when he had the "welcome to the NBA" moment against Milwaukee Bucks star Giannis Antetokounmpo.

With the Indiana Pacers dealing with a season-ending injury to Tyrese Haliburton and the Boston Celtics waiting on Jayson Tatum to recovery from his torn Achilles, the Knicks are in a great position. After making a run to the Eastern Conference Finals last season and losing to the Pacers, they could be the favorite.

So far this offseason, they have signed Guerschon Yabusele and Jordan Clarkson, and they gave Mikal Bridges a four-year, $150 million contract extension. However, it seems like they might not be completely done yet as a move for Antetokounmpo could still be on the table ( h/t James L. Edwards III of The Athletic ).
