Mikal Bridges could follow Jalen Brunson’s lead with Knicks contract discount

Mikal Bridges followed Jalen Brunson to the Knicks.
Now, will he also take less money like Brunson to remain on Broadway?
A report on Monday suggested that possibility — noting that Bridges will sign an extension leaving money on the table.
As soon as Oct. 1, the 6-foot-6 wing can sign an extension with the Knicks, or wait to ink a four-year deal after the season for as much as $156 million.
This fall, he can extend for two years at a total of $72.5 million.
NBA reporter Marc Stein, citing league sources, reported that Bridges is likely to follow Brunson and agree to a team-friendly deal.
With the Yankees on an impressive run of mostly correct decisions, there’s some reason to leave them alone and just let the best team in the American League continue to roll.

The Giants have never been 0-2 under Brian Daboll, until now. They were 2-0 and flying high in 2022 and 1-1 after a rousing comeback in Arizona in 2023. So, this represents a low point as far as early-season difficulties for Daboll and the Giants. They had no business beating the Vikings in the opener and no business losing to the Commanders in Week 2. But here they are.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Harrison Butker kept making a lonely walk to midfield after each quarter Sunday to check on the direction of the wind, which tends to swirl inside Arrowhead Stadium. He did it one last time during the 2-minute warning, when his Chiefs were trailing the Bengals by two and trying to give him a winning field-goal attempt.
