24 Feb
Summary
- Brunson sacrificed $113 million for 2024 extension.
- He desires a career-long commitment with the Knicks.
- Potential future deals could exceed $323 million.

New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson recently clarified remarks about his 2024 contract extension, which saw him take a $113 million pay cut. Brunson expressed a strong desire to remain with the Knicks for his entire career, highlighting his deep affection for the team, city, and fans.
While he desires a long-term commitment, Brunson also alluded to wanting the team to 'do right by him' in future negotiations. He is eligible for a potential four-year, $323 million deal in 2028, which could set a new record for the largest contract in Knicks history.
However, concerns exist about potential performance decline by the time he becomes eligible for such a lucrative contract. The front office's decision will depend on various factors, including future team leadership and Brunson's performance, particularly if he secures a championship.
