Updated · 2026–27 season
OG Anunoby is on the books for $42,500,000 in 2026–27, the 2nd largest cap hit on the New York Knicks roster and 19.2% of the team's $220.9M payroll.
That ranks 29th among the 444 players with a 2026–27 salary on the books, and eats 25.8% of the $165.0M salary cap.
The deal has 3 seasons left on it, running through 2028-29, worth $136,293,102 in guaranteed money.
The money climbs as it goes: $42,500,000 in the first year up to $48,362,068 in the last, a 14% rise across the deal.
Not every year is locked in: 2028-29 player option.
The option year belongs to the player, not the team — he decides whether to take the money or return to the market, so the team cannot count on it either way.
At 29, this contract runs through his age-31 season, so the back end lands after the usual peak.
He is one of the three highest-paid players on the roster, which puts him in the group the payroll is actually built around.
He is one of 14 players on the New York Knicks' books for 2026–27, whose 2026–27 salaries add up to $220,861,653.
New York Knicks sit at $220.9M in payroll and are currently classified Tax Payer, with -$11.8M of room below the first apron.
