Alright, seems that we will not be operating as a 2nd apron team this off-season, which is fine, but it makes the draft much more important now. Quick mock 2026-27 Knicks team I came up with that keeps them below the 2nd apron. Starters: PG: Jalen Brunson SG: Mikal Bridges SF: Josh Hart PF: OG Anunoby C: Karl-Anthony Towns Bench: PG: Jose Alvarado (Opts into 4.5 mil option) SG: Deuce McBride SF: Isaiah Evans (Selected at pick 24) PF: Mo Diawara (Re-signs on 3y/21 mil deal) C: Tarris Reed Jr. (Selected at pick 31) 3rd String: PG: Tyler Kolek SG: Jordan Clarkson (Signed on vet min) PF: Jeremy Sochan (Signed on vet min) C: Ariel Hukporti (Signed on vet min) Total Payroll: 221.3 mil Second Apron: 222.6 mil This roster keeps the Knicks about 1.3 mil below that second apron line.
