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.
Mitchell Robinson on Instagram:
"I don’t even know where to begin the battles, the sacrifices, the mental breakdown, the disbelief in myself, the injuries, the surgeries, the mistakes and to be able to stay strong and bounce back from being in hell was all worth the ride I appreciate the fans and my friends and family for helping me get through all of that while fighting to get it done the sacrifices yall made for me throughout the years will never go unnoticed and unappreciated I can’t thank you all enough for everything y’ll got me through.
Thank You🤘🏾🤟🏾🤍."

The Knicks wouldn't have won a championship if it weren't for Julius Randle…🫡
He signed with the team in 2019 when they failed to attract star talent and delivered them to their first postseason in 2021 since 2013.
He was a 3x All-Star, 2x All-NBA player in his tenure there and battled with the team in deep playoff runs before NY decided it was time to go all-in on Jalen Brunson.
He paved the way and change Knicks culture back into contention.
