As the great cap expert @YossiGozlan points out, in a situation where the Wolves pursue a Ball (or other star player trade-for around $40m) by including Donte DiVincenzo, it would be a 100 percent salary match so they can exceed the first apron.
The Knicks can then sign Donte and have him participate in the preseason but get temporarily waived to ensure his prorated minimum contract fit within the roster.
Exactly what Seth Curry did last summer with the Warriors.

@juscallmemanny@reem_supreem Game 1: Smooth W - Queens
Game 2: Gritty, Ugly W, almost went sideways - Bronx
Game 3: Staten Island (for OBVIOUS reasons)
Game 4: SNATCHED that game with a comeback win - BROOKLYN
Game 5: Our captain pulled off the impossible and won one for the city - Manhattan.
In the past 10 minutes I’ve seen a cop yelled Fuck the Spurs, Spiderman doing pull-ups on scaffolding, a girl with an angelic voice singing Empire State of Mind on a boombox, and a dad help his 8 year old son light a Wemby jersey on fire. There are no other cities in the world
Wemby didn't give a single Knick credit at any point this series, threw up an airball and then walked off the court first without shaking hands with anyone.
This kid fucking SUCKS bro he's earned a hatewatch for life
Wemby exposed himself as being a dirtier player than Vontaez Burfict, the refs exposed themselves as completely crooked, and Jalen Brunson exposed himself as being the best, most clutch player of all time. The New York Knicks are the NBA finals champions. New York or Nowhere.
Knicks won the NBA Finals.
Sam Darnold won the Super Bowl.
Indiana won the National Championship.
Apply for your dream job.
Buy your dream car.

2026 is the year to just go for it all.
Knicks fault:
Sloppy turnovers
Late/slow defensive rotations
Poor 3 point shooting
“Stand around” offense
Not Knicks fault:
Brunson “flagrant”
Wembanyama missed flagrant
6 men on the floor missed technical
Knicks have to use both challenges and can’t challenge anything else
"I never thought I'd be in an NBA Finals and see in the 2nd half 24 free throw attempts to another team's 8…San Antonio's a great team…It's gonna lower our odds big time if in Game 4 they get 24 free throws 2nd half to our 8"
–– Mike Brown as Knicks lose Game 3 115-111
The Knicks are currently the only NBA team in history with the chance to complete a Treble. For those who might not be familiar with this football terminology, this means the Knicks are on the verge of winning 3 trophies in one single season:
- NBA Cup
- Bob Cousy Trophy (ECF Champions Trophy)
- Larry O’Brien
Right now, there are several toddlers in New York City who don’t know it yet, but they’re not going to be going to college because their parents just decided they need to be at Game 4 no matter what.
