On Tuesday night, the Knicks and Nets completed a trade that saw the Nets send forward Mikal Bridges to the Knicks in exchange for Bojan Bogdanovic and multiple draft picks. The trade involved four first-round picks, including both unprotected and protected picks, a pick swap, and a second-rounder.
Bridges is joining the Knicks after a successful season with the Nets, where he played in all 82 games and averaged 19.6 points per game on 44 percent shooting, along with 4.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game. With his addition to the team, the Knicks are bringing another Villanova alum to their roster, joining Jalen Brunson, Donte DiVincenzo, and Josh Hart.
Despite this trade, re-signing free agent OG Anunoby remains a top priority for the organization. As the story of this trade continues to develop, more details may emerge as it is finalized.
