The New York Knicks and restricted free agent Mohamed Diawara are working on a multiyear, eight-figure deal to bring the rookie back to New York, SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley confirms.
The deal is not official, but all signs are pointing to it getting done, Begley notes.
Diawara, who the Knicks selected with the No. 51 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, was expected to get “significant interest from other teams as a restricted free agent,” Begley added.
