Also saw that he was on one list of the most unathletic players in the draft...but he seems like the type of big who usually finds a spot in the NBA because of his shot.

Luke Kornet, C, Vanderbilt

He may not even get drafted, but a team that lands him as an undrafted free agent could get a capable and versatile NBA big. Kornet holds the all-time NCAA record for 3-pointers made by a 7-footer, with 150. A 7-footer who can stroke it from deep? I think that's a valuable asset in today's NBA. Kornet is a competent rim protector as well. His name was floated as a possible first-rounder in past years, so it would surprise me if Kornet doesn't find a place with an NBA team.

Kornet is on a 2 yr deal as reported. Some guys like Baker may not want that....in case they do well and want the $$. Knicks other undrafted from last year (Randale, Plum) are on team option deals....so you can't say the Knicks dont try and do it.

Exactly! People keep forgetting these players have Agents and make different calculations. Baker is a restricted free agent so it's not necessarily a big deal unless some team LOVES him.
