Miles McBride’s role has exploded since the Knicks gave him freedom to shoot and screen — now, with Mitchell Robinson gone, he’s the team’s longest-tenured player at just 26. His contract ends after the 2026-27 season, giving the front office a chance to lock him down before he hits free agency. Despite a rough playoff run hampered by a sports hernia recovery — averaging just 5.6 points with a brutal 33% FG — McBride thrived once Karl-Anthony Towns took over as the playmaking center, unlocking offensive opportunities and helping McBride explode for 25 points on 7-of-9 threes against the Sixers. He’s a perfect fit: a deadly spot-up shooter who defends guards, making him essential in Towns’ new system.
