The Matchup
Frank Ntilikina and Dennis Smith Jr. will always be attached in NBA circles due to the speculation surrounding these two players and the New York Knicks in the 2017 NBA Draft. The Knicks front office was berated by fans and sports media everywhere for not drafting Dennis Smith Jr. Smith Jr. had a stud campaign with NC State during the season and in the NCAA tournament, in favor of young 18 year-old point guard with a 7-foot wingspan Frenchman Frank Ntilikina, who casually had to fly out immediately after being drafted in the first round, to play in Game 5 of the French League Championship Series.
