Dozens of former and current players in the League began their professional careers elsewhere. Some notable former New York Knicks who fit this category are Chris Childs, Anthony Mason and Charlie Ward. Are you the next player to make this similar jump?

Native New Yorker and former Brooklyn Prep, Fordham Ram, Buffalo Brave and Atlanta Hawk of the National Basketball Association (NBA) General Manager and Head Coach Kenny Charles enters his second season at the helm of the Harlem Strong Dogs. Coach Charles and staff will be evaluating players who no longer have collegiate eligibility and are qualified under guidelines to play professional basketball. "This will be a great opportunity of a lifetime for players to demonstrate their professional ability," says Coach Charles.
