Marc Berman of the NY Post reports:
It doesn’t mean the Knicks will pick him if he falls to No. 8 in the NBA Draft, but Killian Hayes currently has a narrow edge as the team’s second point guard on the board after LaMelo Ball, according to NBA sources.
Hayes, the 19-year-old left-hander who played in Germany last season, is considered to have a more supreme skill set than the other lottery-projected point guards such as Tyrese Haliburton, Kira Lewis, Cole Anthony, RJ Hampton, Theo Maledon and Tyrese Maxey.
It should be noted the NBA has just relaxed player workout rules, allowing allowing 4 1/2-hour in-person workouts/interviews/medical evaluations, so a turn of affairs can still be in order before Nov.
