@sportsledgerhq: The $113M headline needs context. In July 2024, Jalen Brunson signed a four-year, $156.5M extension. Waiting until 2025 could have opened a projected five-year, $269.1M deal. Different lengths, different risk. His fourth year is a player option. The choice gave New York more room to build. In 2026, the Knicks won the championship and Brunson earned Finals MVP. His contract created flexibility. The team still had to win. Would you take the money or bet on what you could build? Follow The Sports Ledger for the money behind the game.
