The New York Knicks have signed forward Darion Atkins to a partially guaranteed contract, giving the 22-year-old an opportunity to compete for a roster spot in training camp, according to ESPN's Ian Begley.

Atkins was named the 2015 ACC Defensive Player of the Year with the Virginia Cavaliers, averaging 7.6 points, six rebounds, 1.1 blocks, and 0.8 steals during his fourth and final year with the program.

After going undrafted in the 2015 NBA Draft, Atkins found himself suiting up for the San Antonio Spurs in the Las Vegas Summer League, eventually winning a league title with the team. He totaled 21 points, 20 boards, and eight steals over the course of seven games.

Other talent the Knicks have signed to similar contracts this offseason include 2014 second-round pick Thanasis Antetokounmpo and Harvard Crimson guard Wesley Saunders.
