Giannis Antetokounmpo’s Bucks Decision Sparks Knicks’ $150M Mikal Bridges Extension
Giannis Anti Dumbo’s Bucks decision sparks Nick’s $150 million Muel Bridges extension. In a shocking turn of events, NBA superstar Giannis Anticmpo may have inadvertently paved the way for the New York Knicks to secure a massive deal with Macau Bridges. But here’s where it gets interesting. The Knicks decision to offer Bridges a whopping $150 million 4-year extension was reportedly influenced by intel that Antitmpo won’t be requesting a trade from the Milwaukee Bucks anytime soon. According to a report by Ashish Mathther of Hoops Wire, the Knicks were given the green light to splurge on Bridges after learning that Anticompo is committed to staying with the Bucks. This news comes as a surprise to many, especially considering the Bucks’s eventful off season, which saw the addition of former division rival Miles Turner and the departure of Damen Lillard. But what does this mean for the Knicks? And was it a smart move to invest so heavily in Bridges? The answer lies in the team’s recent performance, particularly in the postseason. Despite a rocky start, Bridges proved himself to be a valuable asset, coming up big in several crucial moments and helping the Knicks secure their first Eastern Conference Finals appearance in over 25 years. It’s worth noting that the Knicks decision to acquire Bridges from the Brooklyn Nets in a rare cross town trade was met with controversy, especially given the steep price tag of five Premier draft picks. However, Bridges impressive performance and commitment to the team, he took on a slight discount to retain his jersey number, have seemingly justified the move. The real question now is what’s next for the Knicks? With Bridges locked in for the next four years, the team is poised to make a serious run for the championship. But will they be able?
