With the NBA trade moratorium lifted, Chris Paul headed to Phoenix and the draft actually upon us, one thing is most certainly clear: time both flies and crawls when you’re in a global pandemic.
The Knicks, having been quiet thus far this week, hold the eighth pick in the draft. Not to mention the 27th and 38th picks (friendly reminder that Mitchell Robinson was nabbed 36th overall back in 2018). Leon Rose has been plotting in private for months, and it’s time for the new team president to produce.
Will he make a draft night deal for the second overall pick in order to select LaMelo Ball?
