This December will mark the two-year anniversary of the New York Knicks trading for OG Anunoby from the Toronto Raptors in 2023.
Though at the time the move was one lauded by fans and pundits alike, these first few weeks of action in the 2025-26 campaign are making it feel as though the Knicks have won the blockbuster all over again.
Throughout his eight seasons in the NBA prior to this one, Anunoby had clearly established himself as an elite two-way contributor and, in some people's eyes, a budding star talent.
Now in year nine, it appears that he's on the verge of shedding this "budding" label and replacing it with "bona fide," as he's been playing lights-out ball for the second-seeded Knicks.
