According to a recent report by the social media account NBA Central on X (formerly known as Twitter), The New York Knicks are reportedly ‘willing to offer almost anything’ to pair Devin Booker with Jalen Brunson.
“Adding a young superstar with four All-Star selections and one All-NBA selection to the No. 2 seed in the Eastern Conference makes sense from the Knicks’ perspective. He and Jalen Brunson would form an electrifying, high-scoring backcourt for one the NBA’s most pleasant surprises, and according to a source, New York would be willing to offer almost anything to make that pairing happen.”
There are rumors circulating that Devin Booker, one of the NBA’s top shooters, may leave the Phoenix Suns since the team was unable to advance past the first round of the playoffs this year.

Adding Devin Booker could provide the New York Knicks with a significant return on investment
Due to their financial struggles, the organization is facing difficulty in upgrading its average roster this summer. Despite Kevin Durant’s exceptional performance, they might not receive the compensation they desire for a potential trade involving the star player.
Moreover, Bradley Beal is unlikely to be traded. On the other hand, acquiring Devin Booker could provide the New York Knicks with a significant return on investment and help them rebuild the franchise in the short and long term.

By acquiring Booker, New York could have an All-Star like Julius Randle and a young and talented defensive anchor in Mitchell Robinson. Additionally, they could keep most of their 11 first-round picks for the rest of the decade.
Devin Booker averaged 27.1 points per game this season while Jalen Brunson averaged 28.7 points, 6.7 assists and 3.6 rebounds in 77 games this season.
Any potential trade involving Booker leaving the Suns would require a significant amount of compensation from the New York Knicks.
