Seraphin is the fifth frontcourt player the Knicks have added this off-season to help improve their standing as the league’s second-worst rebounding team. The team also signed center Robin Lopez and forwards Kyle O’Quinn and Derrick Williams in free agency and spent the fourth pick in the draft on Latvian big man Kristaps Porzingis.
