Metta World Peace, who cleared waivers late Sunday afternoon after being amnestied by the Los Angeles Lakers, has found a new landing spot.
World Peace said Monday that he was joining the New York Knicks because he wants to win.
"I don't care if I'm starting, or sweeping the floors. You hear me? I want to win," he said.
The two came to terms on a two-year deal with the first year guaranteed, a league source told ESPNNewYork.com's Ian Begley.
The deal is worth approximately $1.6 million per season with a player option for Year 2, the source said, adding that the Knicks used the remainder of their mini-midlevel exception to sign the former Laker.
