Report: New York Knicks Sign Pablo Prigioni and Chris Copeland from Overseas

While the New York Knicks have limited finances to fill roster spots, GM Glen Grunwald thinks he may have found two solutions playing overseas. 

Marc Berman of the New York Post reported Wednesday morning that New York had made an offer to the Spanish League point guard Pablo Prigioni. The 35-year-old point guard's agent, George Bass, later confirmed stating, "I've been talking to Glen Grunwald for about four, five years...This is the year it got done."

In the 2011-12 season for Spain, Prigioni averaged 27.7 minutes per game. During his time on the court, he averaged 6.6 points with 3.9 assists per game. Here is a highlight reel of his (might I suggest muting the music?). The point guard does not look too bad here. 

While that is not starting material, it provides even more depth to the point guard position. In Berman's report, he says that Prigioni's agent says that his client "is a pass before he shoots point guard similar to new teammate Jason Kidd.' With scoring options like Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire, it'll be interesting to see how good his judgement is. 

This wasn't the only signing the Knicks would complete on Wednesday.

According to HoopsHype.com, the New York Knicks have signed 28-year-old forward Chris Copeland—who? 

Copeland went to college at Colorado and played the forward positions as a member of the Buffaloes. After his senior year of college, the 6'9" big man went overseas, where he is currently playing. 

In the Belgian League for the Generali Okapi Aalstar, Copeland averaged 21.8 points per game along with 5.5 rebounds.

You can check out some of his moves in this clip where he exploded for 45 points. 

The deal, according to a tweet from Ian Begley of ESPN, is not guaranteed; however, the big man will be at Knicks training camp with the chance of making the team.
