Bridges has agreed to sign a four-year, $150 million contract extension with the Knicks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The deal also includes a player option for the 2029-30 campaign. Bridges has proven to be a durable asset over the years, as he's never missed a single game in his NBA career due to an injury, and he'll remain a key component in New York's lineup for the foreseeable future. Over 82 regular-season outings in 2024-25, the veteran swingman averaged 17.6 points, 3.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 2.0 three-pointers in 37.0 minutes per game.

Bridges amassed 15 points (6-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two blocks, one rebound and one steal across 32 minutes during Saturday's 125-108 loss to the Pacers in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges was efficient while scoring double-digit points for the seventh straight game, albeit in a losing effort. The 28-year-old swingman averaged 15.8 points, 3.7 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.2 steals across 38.0 minutes per contest in the six-game series loss to Indiana. Bridges has one more year remaining on his contract after playing in all 82 regular-season outings for the Knicks this season, during which he averaged 17.6 points, 3.7 assists, 3.2 rebounds and 0.9 steals while shooting 50.0 percent from the field across 37.0 minutes per game.

Bridges chipped in 17 points (6-15 FG, 4-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 130-121 loss to the Pacers in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Finals.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges scored at least 15 points for the fifth straight game, although his peripheral production was a little underwhelming. For the most part, Bridges has been a relatively consistent producer on both ends of the floor, averaging 15.8 points, 4.8 rebounds and 2.5 combined steals and blocks over the past 13 games. Tuesday's loss now sees New York trailing Indiana 3-1, making Game 5 a non-negotiable for the Knicks.

Bridges recorded 22 points (9-15 FG, 4-6 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 30 minutes during Friday's 119-81 win over the Celtics in Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges chipped in across the board, continuing what has been a strong postseason showing. Although his scoring has been a little up and down, his ability to dominate on the defensive end of the floor has been invaluable. Across 12 playoff appearances, Bridges is averaging 15.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.8 three-pointers and 3.0 combined steals and blocks.

Bridges accumulated 23 points (11-21 FG, 1-6 3Pt), seven rebounds, three assists, one block and four steals in 44 minutes during Monday's 121-113 win over the Celtics in Game 4 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges posted his best scoring output of the series and lifted the Knicks to being just one win away from the Conference Finals. He endured a rough start to the series but surpassed the 15-point mark for the first time since the Game 6 win over the Pistons in the first round. The Knicks are 3-0 when Bridges reaches the 20-point mark in the current playoff run.

Bridges registered 12 points (6-10 FG, 0-2 3Pt), three rebounds, two assists and two steals over 38 minutes during Saturday's 115-93 loss to Boston in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges has had a limited impact on offense throughout the series and has failed to reach the 15-point plateau in all three games to date. He still provides value due to his ability to fill the stat sheet, but his overall numbers have experienced a marked regression compared to both the regular season and the first-round series against the Pistons. To put things into perspective, he averaged 16.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.5 steals and 1.2 blocks per game in the first round of the postseason against Detroit.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges couldn't get going in the scoring department during Game 1, hitting only three of his 13 attempts from the field. However, the versatile forward got the job done in many other areas on both ends of the basketball floor, helping secure the win on the road. He recorded game-high totals in assists (7), steals (3) and blocks (2), wrapping up a well-rounded and much-needed performance to get this second-round series underway.

Bridges ended with 25 points (11-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds, three assists and one block over 44 minutes during Thursday's 116-113 victory over Detroit in Game 6 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

Bridges finished as the Knicks' second-leading scorer Thursday, posting 17 or more points for the fourth time during the first round. The 28-year-old swingman entered Thursday's game shooting 42.6 percent from the field in the opening round, but he was highly efficient during the club's Game 6 win. He averaged 16.2 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, 1.8 three-pointers, 1.5 steals and 1.2 blocks across 38.6 minutes per game during the club's first-round series win over Detroit. Bridges and the Knicks are set to face the Celtics in the second round.

Bridges amassed eight points (3-12 FG, 2-6 3Pt), six rebounds, one assist, one block and three steals in 44 minutes during Sunday's 94-93 victory over Detroit in Game 4 of the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges was coming off two strong showings on the offensive end, but he couldn't get into any rhythm until late in the game Sunday -- the veteran forward hit a pair of clutch three-pointers and also picked up a couple of steals in the fourth quarter. Through four postseason games, Bridges holds averages of 13.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.3 blocks, 2.3 steals and 2.0 three-pointers.

EDGE Analysis

Bridges was one of four Knicks with at least 20 points as the team took a 2-1 series lead in Detroit.
