The New York Knicks have a high-profile rookie in top-10 draft pick Frank Ntilikina. While the French phenom may be garnering more attention, he isn’t the only first-year player whom New York has invested time and money into.
Selected at No. 44 overall in the 2017 NBA Draft, Damyean Dotson has a chance to be as strong of a selection as the phenom taken 36 spots before him.
It’s rare that second-round draft picks experience immediate success in the NBA. Following a season during which Malcolm Brogdon, selected at No. 36 overall, won Rookie of the Year, however, expectations and possibilities are changing.
