Josh Hart’s future with the Knicks is heating up as he eyes a potential $131M deal over four years — but don’t expect the full amount. The team’s $22M club option for next season is on the table, but they’re pushing for a long-term, cost-controlled re-signing to stay under the luxury tax. While players like Dillon Brooks and Naji Marshall got big deals for similar hustle and defense, Hart brings more rebounding and playmaking — and outperformed Brooks in advanced stats. With the Knicks already near the tax line for 2027-28, they’ll want Hart to take less this year. But with his value rising and a championship run boosting his leverage, Hart might be ready to cash in — possibly for the last time in New York.
