Kristaps Porzingis, who sat out all season last year as he recovered from a torn ACL, signed a 5-year, $158 million max extension with the Dallas Mavericks.
They’re obviously hoping the former New York Knicks first-round pick and Rookie of the Year Luka Doncic bringing winning back to Dallas for years to come.
It's official!!

We’re going to go ahead and give the Knicks another loss for this. They traded away Porzingis in part because they were hoping to land a player like Kevin Durant.
That isn’t going to happen. KD, Kyrie Irving and DeAndre Jordan all chose the Nets over them and the cherry on top is Porzingis’ massive deal.
Call your friend who is a Knicks fan and make sure they’re okay.
