If former Auburn basketball star Sharife Cooper’s NBA Draft Combine measurement stats are accurate, he may be a “big-time target” by the only team in the league that also features a former Tigers point guard (Jared Harper).
The New York Knicks–who elevated their profile from perennial punching bag to owning a postseason home-field advantage this past season–could be in the hunt for the pass-first PG this July when the 2021 NBA Draft goes down.
The Knicks own the #19 and #21 picks in this upcoming draft by way of the Kristaps Porzingis trade in 2019 that sent the Dallas Mavericks’ selection to the Big Apple.
