The Knicks are eyeing a championship run, and Sochan is eager to contribute. However, he knows he’ll need to earn his minutes on a team loaded with talent.
“One of the reasons why I picked New York is it’s a very deep roster with a lot of really talented players,” Sochan explained. “I still think I’m young, so being around players that have established themselves and done a lot in this league is a crazy opportunity for me.”
His confidence is clear. “I do believe in myself, and I believe I can do well on the court,” he continued.
“But I look at it as the bigger picture. I think I can be a part of this and grow in general.”
As the season unfolds, fans will be watching closely to see how Sochan fits into the Knicks' plans and what impact he can make on the court.
