Report: New York Knicks reach deal with Arron Afflalo

The New York Knicks have reportedly agreed to a two-year deal with former Portland Trail Blazers guard Arron Afflalo.

Afflalo will have an option on the second year, which will give him an opportunity to re-negotiate terms after the new television deal comes into effect.

The eight-year NBA veteran averaged 18 points per game in 2014, but has recently been on the move around the league.

Having started last season with the Denver Nuggets, Afflalo was traded to the Trail Blazers in a mid-season deal.

However, after arriving as back-up to Wesley Matthews, he was promoted to the starting lineup due to an injury to Matthews and shot 40% from three-point range.
