The New York Knicks stay relevant in the Mikal Bridges sweepstakes.
The New York Knicks are still in the mix for a potential trade for a star this offseason, and Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges is on their radar.
Yahoo! Sports insider Jake Fischer says that the Knicks are among three teams still linked to Bridges in trade rumors. "Brooklyn Nets swingman Mikal Bridges, according to league sources, is a player to monitor among Utah's most aggressive aspirations. The Jazz are said to be right in the mix with Houston, holding the No. 3 pick, and New York, where three of Bridges' college teammates currently play, among the teams that continue to check with Brooklyn about the availability of its 27-year-old swingman,"The Knicks have long been linked to Bridges due to his connections on the roster.
The Knicks have the connection for Bridges, but they also have the assets to do so as well. The Knicks have a pair of picks in this week's NBA Draft and they also have players like Miles McBride and Bojan Bogdanovic that they can send to the Nets to mtch salaries."The Nets have expressed zero interest in trading Bridges, according to league sources who have been in contact with them — and it’s not like they haven’t had opportunities.
The Nets hope that they can last long enough to where Bridges can be a pillar of the franchise when they are good again. But he's their best asset to build for the future, and it may get to a point where the package he can bring back in return is better than what he can bring.Jeremy Brener is an editor, writer and social media manager for several Fan Nation websites.
