2019 NBA mock draft 2.0: Knicks pick New York-ready RJ Barrett

Believe it or not, there is intrigue in next Thursday’s NBA draft beyond Zion Williamson.

Will the Knicks take RJ Barrett, as expected, or Jarrett Culver? Will they even make the No. 3 pick, will the Lakers make the selection right after, or will one be traded for Anthony Davis? Who ends up as a late steal?

The Post is here to help. Here’s a complete first-round mock draft:

1. New Orleans Pelicans

Zion Williamson — Duke, F, 6-7, 272

Generational prospect. Skip on down.

2. Memphis Grizzlies

Ja Morant — Murray State, PG, 6-3, 175

The speedy Morant will be running Memphis’ backcourt and leading their franchise, with Michael Conley likely bringing a king’s ransom from teams that lose — or just need — a point guard.
