Shams Charania: Knicks are waiving forward Ivan Rabb and planning to sign forward Kenny Wooten of G League Westchester to a two-way NBA deal, league sources tell @The Athletic @Stadium.
Ian Begley: NYK was aware other teams had interest in Kenny Wooten - including 1 team that was prepared to make an offer, per SNY sources. So it makes sense that they’d act quickly to create a roster spot for him. They’ll waive 2-way player Ivan Rabb, source confirms. Stadium first reported.
The New York Knicks announced today that the team has signed forward Ivan Rabb to a Two-Way contract. Per team policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed. Rabb, 6-10, 220-pounds, holds career averages of 5.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 1.0 assists over 14.6 minutes in 85 games (18 starts) over two seasons with the Memphis Grizzlies. The Sacramento, CA-native recorded 5.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 1.1 assists over 14.7 minutes in 49 games (13 starts) with the Grizzlies last season.
Knicks adding Ivan Rabb
Shams Charania: Forward Ivan Rabb is finalizing a two-way NBA contract with the New York Knicks, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.
The 6-10, 220-pound Rabb played parts of two seasons with Memphis, averaging 5.7 points and 4.3 rebounds in 85 games (18 starts.) Rabb is not with the Knicks in San Antonio. The Knicks backed out of a verbal agreement with Wilkes because of an undisclosed illness. The Post reported they hadn’t ruled out signing Wilkes later in the year. The Knicks’ other two-way signee is Kadeem Allen.

According to sources, the Cavs have been monitoring other cuts around the NBA and have many options they are currently discussing, including the possibility of putting in a claim on forward Alfonzo McKinnie, who was surprisingly waived by the Golden State Warriors. Memphis released forward Ivan Rabb, who could be another option for the Cavs.
Bobby Marks: Memphis will have a $12.5M cap hit on Miles Plumlee and $392K for Ivan Rabb. Since the Rabb contract becomes guaranteed on Oct. 19, any team claiming the former second-round pick would inherit his $1.6M guaranteed contract.
Grizzlies waive Rabb, Plumlee
Shams Charania: The Memphis Grizzlies are waiving forward Ivan Rabb and center Miles Plumlee, league sources tell @The Athletic @Stadium.
The Grizzlies bought more time to figure out Ivan Rabb’s future with the team on Sunday by pushing his contract guarantee date back to mid-October, per Grind City Media’s Mike Wallace. It’s a move that should be beneficial for both sides, as Rabb’s performance at summer league wasn’t quite strong enough to give confidence that he’ll be a regular contributor next season.
