Knicks to approach Derrick Rose about an extension?
The New York Knicks may try to sign Derrick Rose to a contract extension before July 1
The New York Knicks may try to sign Derrick Rose to a contract extension before July 1 when the point guard becomes free agent.
Per NY Post, Because Rose’s last contract was more than three years ago, the former Bull is eligible for one of those pre-free-agency “veteran extensions’’ that Russell Westbrook signed over the summer.
By CBA rules, Rose’s veteran extension can only be three years long and start at 7.5 percent higher than his current wage. The extension package would be for approximately three years, $75 million.
“I haven’t talked to them about it,’’ Rose told The Post. “It’s been more about winning games. We’ll see. I’m more concerned with trying to win games, but it’s something I’d have to talk about with my family and team.’’
According to an NBA source, the Knicks have not approached Rose about an extension, but have not ruled it out for late in the season
