The Knicks’ Ricky Ledo experiment is over. And the Thanasis Antetokounmpo saga should soon pick up steam.

Ledo, the 23-year-old shooting guard from Providence, was waived two days before his contract became partially guaranteed with a $100,000 payout. Ledo had a subpar summer league and people close to him were surprised at his limited minutes in Las Vegas (17 per game).

Sources have indicated a great divide in the Knicks organization over the baggage-laden Ledo, with the front office more in love than the coaching staff with his skills. Knicks coach Derek Fisher has made it clear talent isn’t the most important determinant.

Ledo’s axing is expected to pave the way for the long-awaited signing of Antetokounmpo, according to sources. The defensive swingman was the Knicks’ 2014 second-round pick. Antetokounmpo, 23, had an up-and-down season in the D-League, but should find his way to training camp on some variation of a partial guarantee.

Antetokounmpo’s summer-league showing was erratic too, but ended with a bang — a 7-for-7, one-block, one-steal, 17-point party.

“It left us something to think about,’’ Fisher said after summer league ended.

Antetokounmpo passed up lucrative deals in Europe last summer to play for $25,000 in the D-League. He has been an enigma, with a boatload of energy, but low basketball IQ and an erratic jump shot.

There also is a report out of Europe the Knicks have spoken to 6-foot-7 shooting guard Sasha Vujacic, who played in Turkey last season. Vujacic, 32, played for Phil Jackson with the Lakers and has the same agent as Fisher.

Ledo was a riddle. He gets to the basket easily and had a decent jumper. But often he made poor decisions, carried his dribble too high and attempted to fight through traffic, often resulting in turnovers, especially in Las Vegas (2.6 per game). After being signed March 19, the former Maverick averaged 7.4 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists over 19.4 minutes in a dozen games.

Including Langston Galloway’s partially guaranteed deal, the Knicks have 13 players for the 2015-16 campaign. They also are inviting to camp (on very small guarantees) undrafted Harvard swingman Wesley Saunders and Virginia power forward Darion Atkins. The Knicks have a $2.8 million room exception left for a backup center.
