New York Knicks started the summer off big with the arrival of Mikal Bridges via trade with the Brooklyn Nets, who received a huge number of Draft picks in exchange for their star. This way, the Big Apple franchise brought together their new player with Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby, Julius Randle, Josh Hart, Donte DiVincenzo..., forming a super team that can compete against the best in the NBA.
However, Bridges will finish the 4-year contract he signed in 2022 while still a player for the Phoenix Suns in 2026. After his arrival at the Knicks, the small forward will be able to renew said contract from October 1st, when he becomes eligible for an extension worth $72.5 million and two more years.
All set for Bridges to sign the contract
According to Marc Stein, both parties seem very much on track for this to happen, with the aim of ensuring the player's presence in the New York franchise lasts as long as possible. The pursuit of the NBA championship for the New York Knicks appears to be getting closer to completion.
