With training camp for the 2025-26 campaign beginning in less than two weeks, the New York Knicks have arguably been the most aggressive franchise as of late, ensuring their roster is good to go for the upcoming event.
A 6-foot-3 point guard, who, like Mohamed Diawara (also signed with the Knicks last week), has championship experience at the professional level, is unquestionably one of the franchise’s most intriguing signings.
“The New York Knicks announced today that the team has signed guard Bryson Warren to an Exhibit 10 contract,” the organization stated on Tuesday.
The 20-year-old (6-3, 174 pounds) averaged 11.0 points, 3.7 assists, and 2.6 rebounds over 23.3 minutes in 49 games (15 starts) for the Sioux Falls Skyforce, the Miami Heat’s G League affiliate, last season. The North Little Rock, AR-native signed with Team OTE of Overtime Elite for the 2021-22 season.”
“Warren appeared in 26 games, averaging 12.2 points (42% FG, 34% 3PT), 3.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, and 1.3 steals over 25.1 minutes per game. He was ranked sixth in the league in three-point percentage and went on to help his team to win the 2021-22 Overtime Elite Championship.”
Warren made a bold decision to forgo college and join the Overtime Elite league in 2021, but it ultimately worked out in his favor.

Warren not only won a title with Team OTE as a rookie but also earned second-team All-OTE honors the following season.
The young pro has since competed in the G-League and NBA Summer League, hoping to find a permanent home in the big leagues sooner than later.
If Warren wants to turn his dream into a reality, he should start by making a lasting impression on Karl-Anthony Towns and the Knicks during training camp.
