​Does Karl-Anthony Towns get an extension with the Knicks? If yes, how much will that extension be for? — Troy M. My educated guess is that New York will offer Towns an extension. The question is: will the Knicks offer him the max deal that they can offer him: four years, $272 million? That’s where I pause slightly. Towns came here and, within two years, helped New York reach the Eastern Conference finals for the first time in a quarter century, then turned around and helped the franchise end a 53-year championship drought. He’s done his part.New York Times
