Restricted free agent forward Mohamed Diawara is on the verge of signing a multi-year, $10 million-plus deal to stay with the New York Knicks, as first reported by ESPN\u2019s Shams Charania on Monday.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Diawara, selected No. 51 overall in the 2025 NBA Draft, appeared in 69 games for the champions during the regular season, averaging<\/a> 3.6 points and 1.4 rebounds in 9.2 minutes per game.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Considered to be teeming with raw potential, he showed flashes of developing into a key future contributor, including a night against the New Orleans Pelicans on Dec. 29 in which he dropped 18 points on 7-of-9 shooting from the field and a 4-of-4 showing from three-point range. On March 1, against the San Antonio Spurs, he posted 14 points in 15 minutes.\u00a0<\/p>\n
