Restricted free agent Mohamed Diawara intends to sign a multiyear, $10-plus million deal to return to the New York Knicks, sources tell ESPN. Diawara -- the No. 51 pick in last year's NBA draft -- was part of the champion Knicks after spending the season on a standard contract.
Karl-Anthony Towns on what he told Jalen Brunson when he arrived in New York:
"I told you that the first day I got here and you welcome me here to New York, I said I want to make sure I amplify you to a whole another level that you haven't even recognized for yourself. I want to be that partner in crime that you haven't had, and I want to make sure that every step of the way, anytime you go anywhere, you're never alone. You always have someone behind you that's ready to do whatever it is to protect you, to protect this city. And I only ask for one thing in return. One thing."
(Towns then pointed directly at the Larry O'Brien Trophy)
