Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Set for more playmaking
Towns could see his playmaking responsibilities expand this season as New York looks to build on an adjustment that proved effective during last year's playoffs, Jared Schwartz of the New York Post reports.
Head coach Mike Brown indicated that the Knicks intend to feature Towns at the elbow more frequently, allowing the big man to facilitate with the ball in his hands. The approach could give Towns more opportunities to create for teammates while opening additional actions for OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges away from the ball.

Knicks' Miles McBride: Reiterates desire to remain with Knicks
McBride once again expressed his desire to remain in New York moving ahead, James L. Edwards III of The Athletic reports.
McBride is entering the final season of a three-year, $13 million contract. While the 25-year-old stated Wednesday that he would like to end his career with the organization, that may not be possible, considering Knicks' owner James Dolan is not willing to go into the second apron. McBride has appeared in 277 regular-season games since being drafted in the second round of the 2021 NBA Draft, averaging 7.1 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists over 18.5 minutes per contest. The front office has some work to do and might need to get creative in order to keep McBride on the roster beyond the 2026-27 campaign. There's also a chance he will be traded during the season, though that will depend on how much the front office is willing to take back in a deal.

Knicks' Jaden Akins: Signs two-way deal with New York
Akins signed a two-way contract with the Knicks on Wednesday.
Across 47 games with the G League's Motor City Cruise in 2025-26, Akins averaged 15.1 points, 5.2 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 1.3 steals across 30.8 minutes per contest. He figures to play a key role for the Westchester Knicks in 2026-27.

Knicks' Tony Bradley: Joins Knicks for training camp
Bradley signed an Exhibit 9 deal with the Knicks on Wednesday.
This is essentially a training camp invitation with injury protections. The Knicks have a ton of competition at center already, making Bradley a long shot to make the team.

Knicks' N'Faly Dante: Cut by New York
The Knicks waived Dante (knee) on Wednesday.
This is an expected move for New York. Dante was previously on an Exhibit 10 deal and is still on the mend from a January ACL surgery.

Knicks' Josh Hart: Extension appears unlikely
Hart said Monday that there hasn't been much movement in extension talks with the Knicks and that he doesn't expect a deal to get done, Vincent Goodwill of ESPN reports.
Hart is eligible for an extension but remains under contract for 2026-27 with a team option for 2027-28, so his comments don't create any immediate uncertainty regarding his status with New York. However, the lack of progress suggests the two sides may enter the season without reaching a new long-term agreement.

Knicks' Kevin McCullar: Lands two-way contract with New York
McCullar agreed to a two-way contract with the Knicks on Sunday.
McCullar has seen most of his action in the G League since being drafted in 2024. However, the 24-year-old has some experience at the NBA level, averaging 2.2 points and 1.4 rebounds over 7.4 minutes per contest in 25 regular-season games for the Knicks.

Knicks' Tyler Nickel: Earns two-way deal with New York
Nickel agreed to a two-way contract with the Knicks on Sunday.
Nickel played at North Carolina, Virginia Tech and Vanderbilt throughout his collegiate career before being selected in the second round of the 2026 NBA Draft. The 23-year-old most recently appeared in five games for New York during the 2026 Las Vegas Summer League, averaging 12.2 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 1.0 steals while shooting 41.3 percent from deep over 28.5 minutes per contest.

Knicks' N'Faly Dante: Signs Exhibit 10 deal
Dante (knee) signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Knicks on Saturday.
Dante underwent surgery in January to repair a torn ACL and is expected to miss time to begin the 2026-27 season, so it's possible this is a move to secure his G League rights. Over four appearances with the G League's College Park Skyhawks last season, he averaged 11.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks across 16.2 minutes per contest.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Fully cleared for camp
Brunson announced Thursday that he's been fully cleared after undergoing surgery on his left wrist over the offseason, New York Basketball reports.
Brunson has been trending in this direction all along and was expected to open training camp without any restrictions. However, it's reassuring that he feels comfortable enough to announce a full recovery before camp gets underway.

Knicks' Josh Hart: Eligible for extension
Hart is eligible for a contract extension, per Ian Begley of SportsNet New York.
Hart is under contract for 2026-27 ahead of a 2027-28 team option. The Knicks have plenty of other mouths to feed, as Karl-Anthony Towns is already extension eligible while Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby will be next offseason, so it remains to be seen how New York will prioritize its contract talks. Hart opened last year as a reserve before assuming a full-time starting role in late November, and he's locked into the first unit to open this season in the wake of Mitchell Robinson's exit.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Extension talks at standstill
The Knicks want Towns to take a pay cut on a potential contract extension, per Stefan Bondy of The New York Post.
Towns is under team control for 2026-27 before having a player option for 2027-28. Jalen Brunson is eligible for an extension next year, so Towns may have to settle for a discount in order for New York to maintain its championship core in the future. The star big man appears to be a pretty safe second-round pick in fantasy drafts this year, having averaged at least 20 points, 11 rebounds, three assists and nearly one steal while shooting at least 50 percent from the floor and 82 percent from the charity stripe in back-to-back seasons for the Knicks.

Knicks' Jalen Brunson: Will be ready for camp
Brunson (wrist) is expected to be ready for training camp, ESPN's Vincent Goodwill reports.
"Brunson is at about 80 to 85 percent after the wrist surgery that he had in July," Goodwill said. "He'll have no restrictions when training camp begins in a couple of weeks." Brunson had surgery back in early July following New York's championship run, but his status for Opening Night was never in any real doubt.

Knicks' James Wiseman: Signs with Knicks
Wiseman signed an Exhibit 9 contract with the Knicks on Wednesday.
Wiseman will now compete for a roster spot in training camp. New York currently has two spots available, and Wiseman will compete with Ochai Agbaji, Bruce Brown, John Konchar and Drew Eubanks for one of the spots.

Knicks' Ochai Agbaji: Signs with defending champs
Agbaji signed an Exhibit 9 contract with the Knicks on Wednesday.
This will be a training camp invitation for Agbaji with injury protections. The Knicks have two roster spots open and Agbaji will compete with the likes of John Konchar, Bruce Brown and Drew Eubanks.

Knicks' Bruce Brown: Signs with New York
Brown signed an Exhibit 9 contract with the Knicks on Wednesday.
This is essentially a training camp invite with injury protections, so Brown will not be guaranteed a roster spot. Across 539 career regular-season games, the veteran guard holds averages of 8.7 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.4 assists per showing.

Knicks' Drew Eubanks: Signing with New York
Eubanks (thumb) agreed to a training camp contract with the Knicks on Tuesday, Ian Begley of SportsNet New York reports.
Eubanks will compete for a spot on the Knicks' regular-season roster in training camp. The big man underwent surgery to repair a torn UCL in his left thumb in mid-March, though he's expected to be fully healthy when training camp rolls around. Across 42 regular-season appearances (11 starts) for the Kings last season, the 29-year-old averaged 5.2 points, 3.0 rebounds, 0.6 blocks and 0.5 assists in 13.1 minutes per game.

Knicks' John Konchar: Inks pact with New York
Konchar agreed to a one-year deal with the Knicks on Tuesday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Konchar is set to provide wing depth for the Knicks in 2026-27 after being traded to the Timberwolves and subsequently getting waived in late August. The veteran forward appeared in 56 regular-season outings (eight starts) between Memphis and Utah last season, during which he averaged 4.4 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists, 1.5 steals and 0.7 blocks in 19.9 minutes per tilt.

Knicks' Nick Jourdain: Signs with New York
Jourdain agreed to an Exhibit 10 contract with the Knicks on Tuesday.
After playing for the Knicks' G League affiliate in 2025-26 and suiting up for the Knicks in the Las Vegas Summer League this offseason, Jourdain is set to compete for a spot on New York's regular-season roster. Over 46 games with the Westchester Knicks in 2025-26, he averaged 8.3 points, 5.5 rebounds, 2.1 assists and 1.4 combined steals-plus-blocks across 23.1 minutes per contest. It's worth noting the Knicks own Jourdain's G League rights, so he could be waived before training camp begins.
