In a shocking twist less than 24 hours before the 2024 NBA Draft, the Brooklyn Nets have traded rising star Mikal Bridges to the New York Knicks in exchange for numerous draft picks and veteran forward Bojan Bogdanovic, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. The Knicks are sending four unprotected first-round picks, a protected first-round pick from the Milwaukee Bucks, an unprotected first-round pick swap, and a second-round pick.

Bridges, who the Nets had long remained adamant on keeping, now finds himself joining a Knicks team that should look familiar to him. Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, Donte DiVincenzo, and Bridges are all reunited with one another after winning a national championship together in 2016.
The Knicks are hopeful that Bridges, who is a rising star in the NBA, will be the final piece to their championship equation.
This is a developing story that will be updated shortly.
