I don't see a jump from last year, his stats are virtually the same. 15.9 vs 14.9 PPG last year, 53.1 vs 53.7 eFG%, 0.375 vs 0.370 3-pt. Per 36 number may look a bit better since his minutes are down a bit, but this is small sample size.
Frankly, Knicks should be able to resign him in the $15-20M range. He is a great 6th man, but I am not sure he'd be a starter on a top-6 team, not unless he shows more. His options will be limited because most of the offers will be at the mid-level, I am not sure that teams with salary cap room will be willing to shell it out for him.
He's gonna get more than 15-20
honestly could see the Sixers going after him pretty hard this offseason depending on how the rest of the year shakes out
he's a pretty ideal on-court fit with Maxey (plus defender, good shooter, can handle the ball and run the offense when Maxey sits) and they're still close from their time at Kentucky
also obviously fits with Maxey's timeline
Lol he's getting 25-30 at this rate
