Multiple teams are interested in potentially dealing for Frank Ntilikina.

The Timberwolves, Magic, Grizzlies and Suns have all inquired about the 20-year-old Knicks guard, according to multiple reports. New York told Phoenix earlier this year it wasn’t planning to move Ntilikina, according to ESPN.

Have heard that Minnesota also has interest in Frank Ntilikina, along with the Magic. @SBondyNYDN reported that the Grizzlies have inquired about the Knicks PG, and @IanBegley reported that the Suns reached out to the Knicks to express interest in him.

Ntilikina has averaged 5.9 points and 2.7 assists in 23.1 minutes per game this season. He has hit just 25.7 percent of his 3-point attempts.

Ntilikina, who the Knicks selected with the eighth pick in the 2017 draft, also had an up-and-down rookie season. But, he said he believes he will turn it around.

"I know it's been a bad moment for me shooting-wise," Ntilikina told Bleacher Report in a recent interview. "But it's going to be all right. It's the story of the NBA. It's the story of young players coming in, and you know, this is how it happens."

The Knicks will host the Bucks on Saturday. They’ll enter that matchup with a 7-16 record.
