We talked about him very early on but then he rose up and now I’d be shocked if he made it out of the lottery. The Mitchell similarities as far as their scenario is spot on. |

But he is lottery material Yeah, Devin Carter looks like a legit threat to be a Donovan Mitchell-esque mod-lottery superstar. He’s checking all boxes. I’d give all three picks for him. See what OKC wants for the 12. All the guys I liked early are moving up the board. Maybe something will slip. Salaun is a top 10 pick now? Missi late teens? Knicks might be right to trade out of this one. Maybe grab a euro-stash at 38. Maybe use one pick on Ryan Dunn. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” - KAT

I know he's young and French, but I would still draft and stash this kid. Perhaps even give a year in Westchester.

He actually seems like the kind of player that would benefit more with NBA coaches and training camps. I don't think I would want to stash him. At 38, let Johnnie Bryant have him and get his footspeed up. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” - KAT

But I don't see Thibs playing him year 1 and the does need reps to polish up. G-League might be the best route. Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more.

No "O" G worked out for the Knicks.

I think he needs to see how Julius Randle works out. After that, he can get his reps in wherever. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” - KAT

Missi, Dunn and Djursic or Dadiet would be a solid haul of upside players at the back of the bench. If Isaac Jones goes undrafted, I’d have that kid on speed dial. If Theo Pinson and Jerome “JYD” Williams had a love child, I think Isaac Jones is their boy. “Speak softly and carry a big stick” - KAT

Is Zach Edey literally just Yao Ming and now 20+ years later, he is mid teens to 20s pick instead of consensus no.1?

Edey potential to gain the handle, footwork, and face foward midrange that Yao had is what one has to see to say that. I don’t know. Yao Mings career was a lot shorter than most recall. He only played 4 full 82,82,80,77. There were 3 years 48, 55,57 games. He played 7 seasons. Ages 22-28. Had to sit a full year, then played just 5 the next and was done by age 30. Total career 486 games. All star every year. Edy obvious size was his biggest weapon in college. To compare he is only 2 inches shorter but he has a way to regarding the overall skill set Yao demonstrated in his career. Im not saying he can or can’t. If scouts think he has this potential you for sure draft him and develop if he fell to us. Given its unlikely we bring back both our centers for monetary reasons this could be one avenue was take. If he is a higher pick,, maybe we do something to move up. How far? I can’t say. |

If he was drafted with the purpose of being a 20min per game backup big. Would that be the most effective route for him extending his career? https://vote.nba.com/en Vote for your Knicks.
