Knicks Pursued Trade For Karl Anthony Towns Since Beginning Of Offseason - RealGM Wiretap
While news of the New York Knicks' trade of Karl-Anthony Towns broke suddenly last week, the front office had been pursuing a deal for him over the past several months. The Knicks' need for a center with Mitchell Robinson's injury issues expedited their pursuit for Towns.
"Over the last week is when finally the inclusion of Donte DiVincenzo was included in this proposal, not Mitchell Robinson. So then you have Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo. But still that was a"no." Minnesota wanted an asset. night, the Knicks, from what I'm told, finally put that first round pick from Detroit on the table.
"You never know when it's a deal that's this fluid, when you get wind a couple days out it's active, it's outgoing."
