OG Anunoby has declined his $19.9 million player option for next season, making him an unrestricted free agent. This move, expected by many, will officially place Anunoby on the free agency market starting June 30. The New York Knicks, who traded for their top free agent Anunoby months before his contract expiration, remain the favorites to re-sign him on a long-term deal. Reports suggest that Anunoby could command a salary upwards of $30 million per year in free agency, significantly higher than his current player option. The Knicks are reportedly determined to retain Anunoby despite the anticipated large pay increase, according to a league source.
