Knicks, Donte DiVincenzo Agree to Four-Year Contract, per Report
The Knicks made their first major move of free agency on Saturday, inking former Warriors guard Donte DiVincenzo to a four-year, $50 million contract, according to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski.
DiVincenzo, who declined his $4.7 million player option with Golden State, makes the move to New York to join former Villanova teammates Jalen Brunson and Josh Hart.
After trading away former first-round pick Obi Toppin on Saturday, the Knicks now add a talented three-point shooter and solid on-ball defender to their backcourt.
The Most Outstanding Player of the 2018 Final Four, DiVincenzo shot a career-best 39.7% from beyond the arc last season for the Warriors. Overall, DiVincenzo averaged 9.4 points, 4.5 rebounds and 3.5 assists per game while shooting 43.5% from the field.
DiVincenzo, who won a championship in 2021 with the Milwaukee Bucks, will join a talented Knicks club that finished the regular season with a 47-35 record. After earning the fifth seed in the Eastern Conference, New York beat Cleveland 4-1 in the first round of the playoffs before losing to Miami in six games in the Eastern Conference semifinals.
