The Knicks finally pushed in their trade chips. It’s only fitting it was for a Villanova player.

The Knicks completed basketball’s most thorough, charming and high-stakes college reunion Tuesday night by landing star wing Mikal Bridges from the rival Nets at the steep cost of five first-round draft picks (including four unprotected), a pick swap, a second-rounder and reserve forward Bojan Bogdanovic.

Bridges, a 27-year-old iron man who averaged 19.6 points per game last season, joins former Wildcats teammates Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart and Donte DiVincenzo on the Knicks roster.

“This is crazy lol,” Bridges wrote on social media.
