Restricted free agent Mohamed Diawara is expected to remain with the New York Knicks after agreeing to a new multiyear contract worth more than $10 million, according to ESPN.
The deal keeps the young forward in New York after he spent the entire season on a standard NBA contract and was part of the Knicks’ championship-winning roster.
Diawara was selected with the No. 51 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft and quickly earned the organization’s confidence during his rookie campaign.
