The New York Knicks' NBA Playoffs run came to an end Saturday night after the Indiana Pacers carried on their remarkable 2025 season with a trip to the NBA Finals, but Knicks fans are already thinking about what the team could look like come the fall.

The Knicks saw it all fall apart in the opening two minutes of the second half. Leading by four at the break, Indiana started with a three-point field goal by series MVP Pascal Siakam, who finished with 31 points and averaged 24.8 in the series.
