Knicks prepare to move Miles McBride due to salary cap constraints

The New York Knicks are expected to part ways with guard Miles McBride as the franchise seeks to remain under the NBA second apron for the 2026-27 season. Team management has enforced strict salary cap stipulations, following the departure of Mitchell Robinson earlier this offseason. McBride, who has played for the Knicks on a three-year, $13 million contract, did not sign an extension by the mid-August deadline. He is now set to play the final year of his current deal before entering free agency. Projections suggest he will provide significant production in the upcoming season, ranking as one of the league's most affordable contributors. Potential landing spots for the guard include teams looking to rebuild or clubs seeking depth for title contention, such as the Brooklyn Nets, Sacramento Kings, Memphis Grizzlies, Charlotte Hornets, or Orlando Magic.
