The New York Knicks have arranged a workout with free-agent guard Dennis Smith Jr., giving the former top-10 draft pick an opportunity to showcase his readiness for an NBA comeback.
The private session, reported on September 14, 2025, marks Smith’s first known workout with the Knicks since his previous stint with the franchise ended in 2021. Details about the timing and location of the evaluation were not disclosed.
Smith, 27, has been out of the league since the 2023-24 season and is seeking a new contract ahead of training camps that open later this month. The Knicks, who currently have an open roster spot, are expected to assess his physical condition and fit within head coach Tom Thibodeau’s system before deciding whether to extend a formal invitation to camp.
No further information about the workout or additional candidates under consideration was immediately available.
