earl clark cavs 2014 dunk

The New York Knicks have confirmed the signing of forward Earl Clark, per ESPN.

Clark, 26, was waived by the Philadelphia 76ers on Feb. 20 immediately after he was acquired in a trade with the Cleveland Cavaliers and became a free agent on Feb. 22.

He will be the player to provide the Knicks with the forward depth that they seek. The former No. 14 overall pick in the 2009 NBA Draft was averaging over 15 minutes per game this year for the Cavaliers and chipping in just over five points and two rebounds per game.

Clark can play both forward spots, but will likely be used as a stretch 4. The Knicks were desperate for frontcourt help after waiving Metta World Peace, with Andrea Bargnani and Kenyon Martin on the shelf.

Clark probably won't be a difference maker, but he can be productive in stretches as he proved last season with the Los Angeles Lakers. He probably would've been better off signing with a contender, though.
