Jalen Brunson quickly agreed to extend his stay with a New York Knicks team that has been on the rise since his arrival.
Brunson signed a four-year contract extension with the Knicks on Friday that a person with knowledge of the details said was worth about $156.5 million. Brunson could have earned a much bigger deal by waiting a year, but chose the extension on the first day it was available to him in a move that provides a financial benefit to a Knicks team that the point guard has led to the second round of the playoffs in both seasons in New York."Jalen has embraced every challenge since he’s come to New York and has been committed since day one to the vision and plan we set forth for the future of this team.
Before that he was having a memorable postseason, with five 40-point games that included a franchise playoff-record 47 points in Game 4 of the first round against Philadelphia, and regularly received chants of “MVP! MVP!” during his first All-Star season. Brunson's extension will begin with the 2025-26 season and his decision to take lesser money now should help the Knicks manage their payroll after a busy offseason in which they have re-signed OG Anunoby on a five-year contract worth more than $210 million and acquired Mikal Bridges from the Brooklyn Nets.
