New York Knicks starting lineup for 2023-24 NBA season: All players listed

Despite getting eliminated in the second round of the 2023 playoffs, the New York Knicks still managed to have one of the more promising seasons heading into 2023-24. Be that as it may, there's still some work that needs to be done to exceed or even match the success of last season.

During 2022-23, the Knicks finished as the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference with 47 wins and 35 losses record. They had the fourth-best offensive rating at 117.0 and the nineteenth-ranked defense at 114.2 in the league.

Moreover, it was an interesting off-season for the New York Knicks. as they didn't add that many pieces to their team. Outside of acquiring Donte DiVincenzo (four-year, $50 million), re-signing Josh Hart (four-year, $81 million) and trading Obi Toppin to the Indiana Pacers for draft consideration, the team remained the same for the most part.

With that said, this article will take a look at the Knicks' starting lineup for the entire 2023-24 NBA regular season.
