It was just shy of a year ago when the Knicks' front office had a seismic decision to make.

The Knicks reportedly had been pursuing OG Anunoby for a minute, and the Raptors -- despite being embroiled in a legal battle with the Knicks -- finally had an offer on the table.

The price for Anunoby was two members of the Knicks young core, RJ Barrett and Immanuel Quickley, as well as a second-round pick.

With the Knicks barely above .500, Leon Rose decided to make the move.
