How desperate are the Knicks for a sweet-scoring shooting guard?

At their two-day free-agent tryout camp that ended yesterday, the player that by far impressed the most was 34-year-old veteran shooting guard Bonzi Wells, who has been out of the league since 2008.

The Knicks actually are considering inviting him to training camp — whenever that is, pending a new labor agreement. Whether they offer him a guaranteed pact is unclear.

Wells, a former sharpshooter with the Jail Blazers, has been living at home in Muncie, Ind., since retiring in 2009 after a stint in Spain. The formerly explosive guard last played with New Orleans in 2007-08 before getting cut after which he played in China for one year.
