New York is taking its time with the process, in part to see if the situation in Dallas with Jason Kidd changes.

Having already been rebuffed by five different teams in their requests to interview replacements for Tom Thibodeau, the New York Knicks may finally be ready to start looking outside the realm of currently employed coaches in their search for a new bench boss.

Jenkins was fired by the Grizzlies in March. He’s now a candidate for the Knicks coaching vacancy, according to a report by The Athletic’s Sam Amick.
