When the New York Knicks connected with Julius Randle and his agent regarding an extension, communication was seamless and smooth. Normally, things can get a bit choppy between the front office and agents, mostly due to a difference in compensation and supposed value.
However, this was one situation that both parties agreed on, and after watching Dennis Schroder play away a massive contract extension offered to him by Los Angeles, Randle decided to take a more logical approach toward a deal with New York.
Randle signed a four-year, $117 million extension, but he will stay under $30 million per season, which opens up the possibility of signing another star in the future.
