David Lee received interest from the New York Knicks after he was waived by the Boston Celtics.

The Knicks had an open roster spot at the time, but he ended up signing with the Dallas Mavericks.

Lee would consider the Knicks in the offseason.

“It’s my favorite city in the world as far as spending time there in the offseason,’’ Lee said. “A great organization. I always look back with a positive memory.

“[It’s] something we even discussed in the buyout process – had a conversation with them,’’ Lee added. “These next eight games are most important and we’ll deal with that later. … I’ll have some good choices. I’m looking forward to playing three, four more years. I feel my body feels as healthy as ever.”
