“I would like to stay with the Knicks for the rest of my career”
last week, Jalen Brunson let go a a somewhat surprising statementsaying he hoped he would Nix “reward” him in 2028 for his financial sacrifice in the summer of 2024.
« Of course I would like them to treat me right » anticipated the leader, who then accepted contract extension “at a good price” leaving $113 million on the table. ” I think everyone would want that. And I feel like I made a sacrifice. »
A week later, the same Jalen Brunson returned to this statement, assuring fans New York : plans to do his best to continue his career in the “Big Apple” in two years.
What amount, what duration?
« I would like to stay here for the rest of my career. I really like this place » confided to New York Post. « They welcomed me with open arms and were behind me from day one. I built my life here. I love the city, I love the fans, I love everything this place has given me, on and off the pitch. So here I just feel good and I would like to stay. »
These kinds of statements are common in the NBA, and because of that, it will obviously be necessary for Jalen Brunson and the Knicks to reach a contractual agreement to continue their union.
In 2028, when he will be 32 years old, “JB” will be able to free himself from his contract and sign a new one, which could amount to $323 million over four years. By waiting until 2029, it could grow to $418 million in five years.
But starting in the summer of 2027, Jalen Brunson will also be able to return to New York for $257 million over four years. Therefore, there will be several options on the table that will be studied, in one camp or the other…
