Amar'e Stoudemire could receive trade inquiries in the offseason due to his expiring contract.

Stoudemire hopes to remain with the New York Knicks and be part of a potentially successful rebuild under the direction of Phil Jackson.

"I think the near future is very bright because we have a great nucleus with Tyson and Carmelo and myself, and now Phil Jackson," Stoudemire said. "Those are all highlights that manifested from me signing here in 2010, when I came here to help the Knicks win.

"That's why I don't want to leave. I want to be here for the long haul and do whatever it takes to win, so whatever sacrifices I have to make, I will be willing to make them."
