From Robert Sanchez and Ian Begley:
The Knicks picked up the 2026-27 rookie scale team option on Pacome Dadiet, sources told SNY NBA Insider Ian Begley, before the team’s Oct. 31 decision deadline.
Dadiet, 20, was New York’s first-round pick in the 2024 NBA Draft (25th overall) out of France and played in 18 games for the Knicks during his rookie campaign, although he hasn’t seen the floor for New York yet this season.
In a limited role, the shooting guard averaged 1.7 points and 1.0 rebounds in 6.2 minutes per game. He shot 32.3 percent from the field and 31.6 percent from deep.
After getting drafted, Dadiet signed a four-year, $13 million deal — a standard rookie-scale contract. However, his 2024-25 salary was reduced by 20 percent to save the Knicks money under the salary cap.
Interesting move. I’m sure it’s some sort of salary cap thing more than necessarily a vote of confidence, but still interesting.

Well, there has been a lot more running than gunning so far
Eye test wise, I’ve noticed some sequences where a Knick was inside the paint and passed out to the three point line where I thought they shouldn’t. But that’s clearly what Brown wants.
Wow that was crazy. Basically Pacome Dadiet tying the World Series
