(AP) The New York Knicks are keeping J.R. Smith and Pablo Prigioni, two key members of their first Atlantic Division championship team since 1994.


Both players agreed to new deals Thursday, their agents confirmed.


Smith, the Sixth Man of the Year, gets a four-year contract worth around $25 million.


Prigioni could make about $6 million over three years. The Argentine guard moved into the starting lineup late in the season and helped the Knicks finish 54-28.
