2 of 8

Underrated: Donte DiVincenzo

Given the pivotal role that Donte DiVincenzo played for the New York Knicks during the recent NBA Playoffs, it is difficult to overlook his status as one of the most undervalued players on the team. Although he may not be among the most prominent names on the roster, his contributions were crucial during the most critical moments of the postseason. Notably, he ranked as the team's second-leading scorer throughout the playoffs.

DiVincenzo's status as the fourth or fifth-best player on the squad is quite remarkable, and this level of depth positions the Knicks as a genuine contender for the championship in the upcoming season.

Overrated: Julius Randle

Given the New York Knicks' ability to maintain their performance in Julius Randle's absence due to injury, one might question whether Randle is somewhat overrated. While he is undoubtedly a skilled player, his value appears to be less significant compared to several teammates. As he becomes eligible for a contract extension, it will soon be revealed how much the Knicks truly value his contributions. There exists a possibility that New York may decide to part ways with Randle before offering him an extension.
