The futures of Julius Randle and the New York Knicks may not be intertwining. And that much could be determined as soon as this offseason, with the All-Star forward up for an extension.
If the Knicks do decide to move on from Randle this summer, it will take a trade. He’s under contract through the 2024-2025 season with a player option for 2025-2026.
One option that could present itself, is swapping the All-Star with the Washington Wizards‘ Kyle Kuzma in a blockbuster deal.
Knicks receive: Kyle Kuzma, 2027 first-round pick, 2030 first-round pick
Wizards receive: Julius Randle
Almost a year out from free agency, Randle won’t net a king’s ransom from any team.
