OG Anunoby Traded To The Knicks

The best way to end 2023 is facilitating a big trade, and that’s exactly what the New York Knicks and Toronto Raptors did.

Per Adrian Wojnarowski and Shams Charania, RJ Barrett has been sent to Toronto, with OG Anunoby being sent to New York. Here are the full trade details.

Knicks:

OG Anunoby
Precious Achiuwa
Malachi Flynn

Raptors:

RJ Barrett
Immanuel Quickley
2024 second-round pick (Detroit Pistons)

Anunoby is most likely going to hit the market next offseason. It was known the two-way wing player was going to decline his option. Even though it’s an expiring contract, many expect him to re-sign with the Knicks – unless something goes wrong.

Also, for New York, Achiuwa and Flynn are eligible for restricted free agency this summer.

Speaking of restricted free agency, Quickley is rocking in the same boat after declining to extend with the Knicks last offseason. So for the upcoming offseason, he will be a restricted free agent with him wanting to be a starting point guard making between $25-$30 million a year.

Now, Toronto doesn’t have to worry about extending Barrett. He’s got a lengthy contract left. The Raptors have him on the books for the next four years averaging $26.7 million a season; this includes this season at $23.8 million.

All-in-all, this was a successful trade for both sides with each team gaining what they wanted to gain from this transaction. CourtSideHeat will have an article detailing and solving who won this trade in the coming days.

Knicks Aren’t Willing To Trade Jalen Brunson For Giannis Antetokounmpo

According to The Athletic’s Sam Amick, the New York Knicks have made Jalen Brunson “untouchable” in any trade conversations that may or may not include Giannis Antetokounmpo.

New York has made it clear they highly value Brunson, even if it means not being able to land Antetokounmpo as a result of it. The Knicks internally believe having him on a discounted contract will allow them to outlast their competition in their never-ending quest for a championship.

Both Milwaukee and New York have kicked the can around on a potential trade; however, both teams have the common mentality of wanting to keep their franchise player for the foreseeable future.

This has ultimately led to talks settling down and now at a stalemate of what’s next. It’s reportedly believed that the Knicks offered the Bucks a combo of Karl-Anthony Towns, OG Anunoby, and Mitchell Robinson.

It’s unclear how the organization feels about potentially trading away Mikal Bridges; the reason why he wasn’t apart of this round of trade talks was due to being ineligible in the month of August because of contract restrictions.

Since the ending of last season, beginning this offseason, Antetokounmpo has sent very mixed signals of what he wants do with his career and if that’ll be continued with the Milwaukee Bucks.

According to ESPN’s Shams Charania, the New York Knicks and Malcolm Brogdon have agreed to a one-year contract.

This will be his tenth season in the league, as last season saw him playing with the Washington Wizards. Since winning Sixth Man of the Year in 2022-23, Brogdon has only played in 63 games.

Due to his injury history, New York will have the 32-year-old come off the bench in a more limited capacity to try to save his life span throughout the season.
