DAILY REPORT: The New York Knicks currently hold the fifth position in the Eastern Conference standings.
The New York Knicks currently hold the fifth position in the Eastern Conference standings. Should they maintain this position, it would match their highest finish during the tenure of head coach Tom Thibodeau.
This is particularly noteworthy as Thibodeau approaches the final year of his contract, a detail that has garnered attention. According to The Athletic’s Sam Amick, the outcome of the postseason will likely influence decisions regarding Thibodeau’s future with the Knicks. However, sources within the league suggest that Thibodeau is hopeful of securing his continued tenure with the team, with discussions planned between both parties during the upcoming summer.
Amick also reports that Thibodeau’s current contract is valued at approximately $7 million per year and extends through the 2024-25 season.
