Knicks Confident in Retaining OG Anunoby Despite Sixers' Interest
Philadelphia 76ers eyeing Paul George and OG Anunoby but Knicks' insider connections may secure Anunoby's stay.
- OG Anunoby is expected to decline his $19.9M player option to seek a long-term deal.
- The Knicks have a strategic advantage as Anunoby's agent is the son of Knicks president Leon Rose.
- The Sixers have significant cap space and are targeting elite two-way wings, including Paul George and Anunoby.
- If top targets are unavailable, the Sixers may pursue Donovan Mitchell or Zach LaVine.
- Anunoby's potential free agency could drive up his contract value, benefiting his negotiations with the Knicks.
