Miles McBride is poised to be the big casualty of the Second Apron.
The Knicks will not have money to re-sign everyone, and perhaps the most likely outcome is that he ends up being traded—possibly as soon as February, or even earlier.
Recently, journalists Jake L. Fisher and Marc Stein discussed this on their own podcast.
“A more pressing issue for the Knicks. Teams continue to describe McBride as a probable trade candidate as the season progresses, given the uncertainty surrounding his future with the Knicks,” Stein said.
The aforementioned McBride is in the final year of his value, worth only $3.9 million, and could be a good bargaining chip for a future trade.
The same situation as Pâcome Dadiet, on the Knicks’ hot seat, and who is expected to depart so they can sign two pieces soon, namely Bruce Brown and James Wiseman, according to sources close to the situation.
McBride has spent his entire professional career with the Knicks. In 277 official games his averages have been 7.1 points, 1.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists per game.
