Bridges is only making $23 million next year. OG might be $35 plus. I guess that’s part of the equation.
Edit: I guess they can still keep Anunoby?
[Wojnarowski] The Knicks are still determined to keep OG Anunoby in free agency, sources tell ESPN, but the ability to resign center Isaiah Hartenstein becomes more difficult now. The Knicks are loading up on wings to match up with the NBA champion Boston Celtics.
They can keep OG as long as they don't exceed the 1st apron. They have 41 mil of room. OG's max I believe is 45. He's gettable if a desperate team with money wants to pay *cough* PHI....
I also agree that all those picks for Bridges is a bit loony. He's great. This trade makes them better. I think they're going to regret this move in 2 years.
