With the 2021 NBA Draft right around the corner, the NY Knicks find themselves in a very interesting situation: to trade, or not to trade.

The Knicks currently have draft picks #19, #21, #32, and #58.

However, rumors have spread that New York will try to package their two first-rounders, and possibly pick #32, to move up into the late lottery and target a higher-upside player.

That’s a lot of draft capital to give up just to move into the 8-10 range, at best.
