Metta World Peace came to terms with the New York Knicks on a two-year deal Monday, with the first year guaranteed, a league source told ESPNNewYork.com's Ian Begley.

World Peace cleared waivers late Sunday afternoon after being amnestied by the Los Angeles Lakers, which made him an unrestricted free agent.

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.

"The level of focus it takes to play in the Garden, that's what I'm gonna bring," he said.

I'm not sure what he will bring exactly, but the Knicks have a knack for going for guys when they're well past their primes. He will be okay if he plays 15-18 mins a game.
