Tony Bradley is on the Knicks roster as of Wednesday, September 30, arriving from free agency. The move follows a September 10 report from HoopsRumors flagging him as a fit in New York.
The move
Tony Bradley joins the Knicks roster, arriving from free agency after entering the 2026-27 season without a team. New York added the 28-year-old center-forward, now in his eighth NBA season, with the move confirmed on the official roster Wednesday, September 30. The addition follows an earlier report: on September 10, HoopsRumors flagged him in "Knicks Notes: Bradley, Center, McBride, Hart, Brunson," a report the site rates at 33 percent confidence.
The money
Bradley's contract terms are not on file yet; public salary data can lag a signing by a day. The Knicks carry $230.2 million across 18 contracts for 2026-27, putting them over the second apron. The league cap sits at $165.0 million, the tax line at $200.4 million, the first apron at $209.0 million and the second apron at $221.7 million. Whatever Bradley's deal pays, it lands on a roster already spending well past every luxury-tax threshold.
The fit
Bradley averaged 4.0 points, 2.8 rebounds and 0.5 assists in 11.0 minutes across 41 games last season, 2025-26. He joins a Knicks frontcourt built around Karl-Anthony Towns, who logged 31.0 minutes and 20.1 points per game last season, and Mitchell Robinson, who played 19.6 minutes and scored 5.7 points per game. New York's roster now stands at 24 players, against a standard limit of 15 plus three two-way spots, giving Bradley a depth role behind the incumbent bigs.
