Knicks sign Frye and Robinson

NEW YORK -- The Knicks on Saturday signed Channing Frye and
Nate Robinson, two of their three first-round picks.

Terms were not disclosed.

Frye, a center from Arizona, was the eighth overall pick in
Tuesday's draft. The 22-year-old player from White Plains, N.Y.,
averaged 13.5 points and 7.3 rebounds in four seasons with the
Wildcats. He is second in Pac-10 history in career blocked shots
with 258.

Robinson, a 5-foot-9 guard from Washington, was taken 21st
overall by Phoenix and acquired by New York in a trade that sent
Quentin Richardson to the Knicks and forward Kurt Thomas to the
Suns. Robinson left the Huskies after his junior season. He
averaged 14.4 points in his career.

The Knicks also selected Florida forward David Lee with the
final pick in the first round, No. 30 overall. He signed with the
team on Friday.
