Knicks’ Mikal Bridges deal means long 2025 NBA Draft wait
NY Post
The Knicks don’t presently own a first-round selection in Wednesday night’s NBA Draft in Brooklyn.
That means they likely will have to wait until the event’s second day to make the first offseason addition to their roster, barring a trade.
While they wait for their current position at No. 50 overall in Thursday’s second round, the Knicks will watch the outcomes of the first two of the five first-rounders they shipped to the Nets in the Mikal Bridges deal last summer.
Brooklyn received what turned out to be the No. 19 pick via Milwaukee in the swap, plus the Knicks’ scheduled pick at No. 26.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
