Karl-Anthony Towns said the Knicks' decision to pause all extension talks until later in the season was "news to me." Reports put New York's offer at about four years and $200 million; Towns is eligible for a max extension projected at $276 million over four years. He earns $57.1 million this season and has a $61 million player option for 2027-28.
