MIN:

• Minnesota were interested in Q before he got traded to Toronto

• Knicks send Q together with Ju for KAT and save Donte and Detroits FRP

• Anderson/Burks are swapped because of team needs, both were expiring contracts

Raptors:

• Instead of getting both RJ and Q, Knicks send Detroits FRP and their 31 FRP (t3 protection) alongside RJ

Pistons:

• Knicks don’t do the Bogdanovic trade and keep Grimes and their SRP

Nets:

• Knicks do the same trade package with just 3 FRP (25/27/29, 26/28 swap-picks) and Fournier and Grimes instead of Bogdanovic and 5 picks/ 1 swap

Knicks:

• they get KAT before the extension kicks in, saving Donte from being traded

• Anderson adds the wing depth expected off the Bogdanovic trade

• they keep one of their 2025 FRP for depth purposes
