The Knicks went all-in this past offseason by adding Karl-Anthony Towns and Mikal Bridges. Brunson, Towns, Bridges, OG Anunoby and Josh Hart are all under contract for at least next season, so the team should look very similar moving forward.

The New York Knicks are one game away from their first Eastern Conference Finals appearance since 2000, thanks in large part to the fourth-quarter heroics of star guard Jalen Brunson . The winner of the 2025 Clutch Player of the Year award for his regular season efforts in crunch time has managed to up his game this postseason to help lead the Knicks to a 3-1 series lead over the Boston Celtics.
