Knicks Guard Miles McBride Signs $13M Contract Extension

Following a major trade, the defensive-minded point guard is expected to take on a larger role in the team.

Miles McBride, the New York Knicks guard, has signed a three-year, $13 million contract extension.
The contract is fully guaranteed and frontloaded, decreasing in annual salary each year.
McBride, a defensive-minded point guard, has been used sparingly since being drafted 36th overall in 2021.
The Knicks also traded guards RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley to the Toronto Raptors for OG Anunoby, Precious Achiuwa and Malachi Flynn.
McBride played a season-high 18 minutes in the Knicks' recent loss to Indiana, hinting at a potentially increased role.
