Opinions from The Athletic, CBS Sports, NY Post, and Yahoo! The New York Knicks focused on versatile, promising talent in the 2024 NBA Draft , selecting four players who offer a mix of potential and immediate contributions.

The Knicks got their man with a Portland swap. The Knicks entered today’s second-round of the 2024 NBA Draft with two picks in their pocket, the 38th and the 51st. Leon Rose, Brock Aller, and the Knicks front office executed a crafty maneuver last night by spinning the 24th pick into the 26th and 51st via trade. Then they traded the 26th selection into five second-rounders that will be...

The prototypical 3&D wing gets the biggest Knicks payday ever.

You’d think a brain discoloration would give me some kind of superpower or special intelligence; mine just makes me think about 2010 Raymond Felton and spontaneously rap parts of “We Gonna Make...
