The Knicks will use Christl Arena, the home of the Army men's and women's basketball programs, for their practices throughout the week. They will also train in the O'Meara, Malek, Dawkins, Class of 1959 Strength Development Center inside Kimsey Athletic Center. Practice sessions will be closed to the public.

The Knicks roster underwent an overhaul since last year's camp, with at least eight new faces joining the team for 2015-16. Rookie first-round draft picks Kristaps Porzingis and Jerian Grant, as well as free agent signings Robin Lopez and Arron Afflalo are among the newcomers. They join all-star small forward Carmelo Anthony and Middletown, N.Y., native Cleyanthony Early, who were part of last season's team.
