How agency Knicks once had frosty relationship with finished off final frenetic details of Karl-Anthony Towns trade
NY Post
The Knicks should spell Klutch with a ‘C.’
In order to nab Karl-Anthony Towns, the Knicks needed the front office’s foresight, the creativity of team capologist Brock Aller and assistance from agency Klutch Sports in the most complicated and combustible aspect of the megadeal’s framework.
As The Post learned, it involved rushed timelines and layers of negotiations from lawyers to the MSG Sports COO from New York to Charlotte to Serbia — all while Towns waited in Charleston, S.C., for clearance to start training camp.
Why?
Duane Washington Jr., a Klutch client, needed a buyout. He was included in the three-team swap with the Timberwolves and Hornets, among three players the Knicks signed and traded to make the salaries match and confirm the mathematical equation.
For Washington, the reward was a roughly $2.2 million guaranteed salary and an opportunity to revive his NBA dream with the Hornets.
