It’s on to Sin City for the Knicks.
A handful of Knicks will compete on the “A Team” in a two-week unofficial NBA league in Las Vegas that starts today.
Seventy NBA players will participate in the “Impact Basketball Competitive Training Series” because of the lockout. The Knicks team will feature Chauncey Billups, rookie Iman Shumpert, Shawne Williams, Roger Mason, rookie center Josh Harrellson and Jared Jeffries.
However, according to the league’s organizer, Joe Abunassar, the Knicks club will be shorthanded because Billups, Mason, Harrellson and Jeffries won’t be showing up until Wednesday.
Mason will be at the NBA-Players Association meeting tomorrow.
