His name might not ring a bell to many Knicks fans.

But the diehard Knickerbocker supporters will remember Dmytro Skapintsev.

The 7-foot-1 Ukrainian center played two games for the Knicks on a two-way contract during the 2023-24 season.

He has spent most of his time in the G League.

Skapintsev played two seasons with the Westchester Knicks before splitting 2024-25 between the Maine Celtics and the Rip City Remix.

Now, he’s heading overseas.

Skapintsev has signed a one-year contract with Hapoel Jerusalem, the Israeli team announced.

He put up solid numbers in the G League to earn the opportunity.

In 2024-25, Skapintsev averaged 8.8 points, 7.8 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.7 blocks per game at the G League level.

At 27 years old, this is probably a chance for Skapintsev to prove he can play at a high level in a strong league. It may get him one more NBA opportunity.

His path to the NBA was quirky, because although Skapintsev is from Ukraine, he actually played his college basketball at Cal State-Northridge.

The Knicks eventually gave him that two-way deal after Summer League in 2023. He didn’t prove he could stick around at the NBA level, despite immense size and intriguing skill.

His basketball journey still likely has a lot of years in it, even if they aren’t in the NBA.

Skapintsev may go down as that guy who made two brief Knicks appearances, or he may find a way to comeback to the league at some point down the road. For now, he heads to Israel.
