The New York Knicks and RJ Barrett on Monday agreed to a big contract extension that could have some significant consequences.
ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski shared the news about the Barrett contract. Barrett is getting a four-year, $120M contract extension from the Knicks.
According to Woj, the Barrett deal could end the Knicks’ pursuit of a trade for Donovan Mitchell.
Woj says the Knicks had imposed a Monday night deadline to get a Mitchell trade done or they would commit to the Barrett extension.
