Know The Prospect: Trae Young

The NBA draft has existed for 70 years. In all that time, the New York Knicks have never drafted someone from the University of Oklahoma. NBA Sooners of note include Wayman Tisdale, drafted one spot after the frozen envelope reaped Patrick Ewing; Harvey Grant, who very nearly became a Knick just as their rivalry with brother Horace’s Bulls was taking off; and Stacey King, who contributed very little to Chicago’s first three-peat, then trolled the Knicks’ “Go NY Go NY Go” anthem at the Bulls’ 1993 victory parade with “Yeah...they gone.” King is now a color analyst for Bulls games, subjecting millions of Midwesterners to his dull repartee six months a year, so in the end the W is ours.
