5.2 million trade exception +8 will also be traded in the first round: Mei Ji reveals that Derog is in favor of the target New York wants to form a 4 giant
OG-Anunoby made his Knicks debut, he started 35 minutes, 7-of-12, 3-of-6 three-pointers, scored 17 points, 6 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 steal, shooting 58.3% from the field, 50% from three-point range, plus/minus +19, and the perfect offensive and defensive performance rejuvenated the Knicks, who had previously fallen into frustration.
According to previous TA reports, the main reason for the Knicks to trade is the locker room frustration, some players are frustrated because of their roles and playing time, and the Knicks management directly made a big trade, using Barrett, Quickley, and Pistons' 2024 second-round picks to get Anunoby, Achiuwa, and Malazi Flynn from the Raptors.
However, according to HoopsHype's Michael Schmidt, the Knicks will continue to be active in the trade market after the trade is made, and the Knicks want to find a taller guard to partner with Brunson, who has good scoring ability. The Knicks and the Raptors didn't give away a single first-round pick, they still have 8 first-round picks available for trade, Fournier can also be a head, and the Knicks still have a 5.2 million trade exception to use.
According to BR reporter Zach Barkley, the Knicks' next target is DeMar DeRozan, and the Knicks want to build a top-tier lineup - Brunson, DeRozan, Anunoby, Randle, Hatten, and bench Hart, Achiuwa, Grimes, McBride, Dewin.
DeRozan averaged 36.7 minutes per game this season, scored 22.4 points, 5.4 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 1.09 steals and 0.75 blocks, shooting 45.5% from the field and 34.5% from three-point range.
