News · New York Post · 1hJosh Hart remains undaunted in the face of his Knicks contract uncertainty

Josh Hart says he isn't losing sleep after the Knicks froze all extension talks until later in the season, with the team citing James Dolan's mandate to stay out of the second apron, the Post reports. Hart is eligible for a four-year, $131.2 million extension, makes $20.9 million this year, and has a $22.3 million team option for next season; Miles McBride is also eligible. The detail fans will repeat is Karl-Anthony Towns' side of it: the Post's Stefan Bondy reported the offer was about $200 million over four years, roughly $77 million under his max, and Towns said it didn't reflect what the team "values" him at. Hart, who spent media day saying he didn't want this "trickling into the season," now insists "it's not frustrating" and that some days he won't think about it at all. Jalen Brunson's reply was that everyone will be professional, which is what a captain says when a cloud has just moved in over a repeat bid.
