On Tuesday night, the Knicks completed a trade with the Nets, acquiring forward Mikal Bridges in exchange for Bojan Bogdanovic and multiple draft picks. The trade involved four first-round picks, including both unprotected and protected picks, a pick swap, and a second-rounder.
Despite this trade, the Knicks are still focused on re-signing free agent OG Anunoby, which remains a top priority for the organization. Bridges joins the Knicks after a successful season with the Nets, where he played in all 82 games and averaged 19.6 points per game on 44 percent shooting, along with 4.5 rebounds and 3.6 assists per game.
Bridges’ addition to the team brings another former Villanova alum to a roster that already includes Jalen Brunson, Donte DiVincenzo, and Josh Hart. The story is still developing, and more details may emerge as the trade is finalized.
