With the November 8th G League season opener rapidly approaching, last week’s draft represented the end of another long offseason for the NBA’s minor league. The Westchester Knicks have entered a state of transition, with several key players and head coach Mike Miller departing for the big club, and this year’s draft gave them a big opportunity to start anew, especially with two first round picks in tow (No. 4 and No. 22).
With their first pick, the W-Knicks selected Tyler Hall, a 6-foot-5 guard from Montana State. Hall had a very successful college career, averaging 20 points per game over his four years there and earning honors such as All-Big Sky first-team, Big-Sky freshman of the year, and being mentioned on the Julius Irving Small Forward of the Year watch list.
