Izvor je Daily Knicks, a koliko vidim, ipak se radi više o špekulaciji nego o konkretnoj mogućnosti. Međutim, zanimljivo je da oni vide Marija kao itekako vrijednu "metu":
It would behoove the New York Knicks to explore this possibility, no matter how unrealistic it may seem. The Knicks may be hard-pressed to provide what the Orlando Magic are asking for, but a third team could always be included.
According to Marc Stein, the Magic may be willing to move Hezonja for a proven scoring threat.
Kristaps Porzingis is the more proven commodity, Hezonja has similar upside along the wings. He’s a 6’8” and 218-pound shooting guard with explosive leaping ability and the ability to convert from beyond the arc.
At 21 years of age, Hezonja is a tantalizing talent who’s in need of the right system and leadership.
It’s entirely possible that Frank Vogel is that leader, but Jeff Hornacek could be the ideal alternative. Unfortunately, the Knicks don’t seem to have the necessary assets to swing a trade for a player of Hezonja’s value.
Nevertheless, when a team in the Eastern Conference is both jostling for postseason position and considering a trade, it’s only wise to keep a watchful eye.
