And so it begins. Ndour had the support of Clarence Gaines and Kurt Rambis. Not so much the rest of the organization. https://t.co/i9H5qFFhV2

Ndour was a part of the Knicks’ 2015 NBA Summer League roster. During this time he impressed many, averaging 9.6 points per game and 4.8 rebounds per game. Dallas was able to sign Ndour after this time, but he would be waived early on during the 2015-16 season.

Ndour would return to the Knicks in 2016. A crowded front court made it hard for Ndour to shine. He averaged 3.1 points per game and 2 rebounds per game in 32 games last season.
