REPORT: Miles McBride Signs Mult-Year Deal with the Knicks

Per Bobby Marks of ESPN, the New York Knicks signed rookie guard Miles "Deuce" McBride to a three-year deal with the first two years guaranteed, and year three is a team option. McBride stands to make 1.8 million in his second year, and according to Spotrac, he will make just under a million dollars his rookie season. 

McBride has scored nine and 14 points, respectively, in his first two NBA Summer League games with the Knicks. 

He was drafted in the second round (36th overall) of the 2021 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks. 

Last season, he led the Mountaineers in scoring (15.8 ppg), assists (4.9), steals (1.9), and three-point percentage (41.4%), earning Second Team All-Big 12 and an AP All-American Honorable Mention selection.

He became the 35th draft pick out of West Virginia and the first Mountaineer to be selected in the NBA Draft since Jevon Carter in 2018.

McBride and the Knicks are back in action Wednesday night versus the Los Angeles Lakers at 10:00 on ESPN2.
