Rotation player
The team just announced via Twitter the signing.
Thunder were ready to sign him but he backed out of the deal. Just was reading he may be headed to Westchester, that would be convenient for the Knicks since they don't have a roster spot. I thought Perry might be close to a deal for Lance or Quinn to make space for him. He might be the best PG out of Jack, Sessions and Baker despite the lackluster career he's had so far.Sounds like Burke will be G League bound. Former top 10 pick by Minny in 2013. When he got heavy minutes his first couple seasons in the league, he was a 12 ppg and 5 apg guy, but with bad shooting. Shot better last year in limited minutes with Washington, but the fact the Knicks could get him like this tells you everything you need to know about how the league feels about his prospects, even only still at age 24.
Just saw this on NBC sports, they said the same as me, might be the best PG on the Knicks.Thunder were ready to sign him but he backed out of the deal.

Good signing. Was he at MIchigan with THJr?
We should have kept PG-Jerian Grant, he will be starting for the Bulls on their opening night, plus his passing skills improve tremendously over the offseason, looking like a NBA tier-2 PG in the preseason games.

We traded Grant along with Robin Lopez and Jose Calderon to get 2 guys who we let walk in free agency (Rose and Holliday) and a 2nd round pick that became Damyean Dotson. Holy cow are PJ's trades train wrecks in retrospect.
I'd bet Timmy had something to do with it, he's got a better chance being the starting PG here than OKC. Both teams could only offer the minimum, probably the same as Jack got a non-guaranteed minimum contract.i don't mind this signing. i don't LOVE it, but i don't mind it.
so who's getting traded? because i'm getting the feeling they didn't sign this guy just to send him to westchester for the whole season.
anybody know what the terms of the contract are? i can't find it anywhere.
anybody know why he backed out of signing with the thunder?

I know what he actually means, but I like to interpret this quote as Burke saying that he will make our roster even if no other player we currently have is good enough to make our roster and we start the season just playing Burke against 5 guys.
It's true but we can only keep Jack or Burke and then only until Noah comes back. My bet is we keep Jack and send Burke down to the G-League. Let's see if Horn gives Trey some burn tonight.
is that true, or is it a joke? if it's true, does that mean burke might be able to suit up for the knicks during noah's suspension?
