The New York Knicks select eighth in the 2020 NBA Draft and reportedly have interest in Auburn wing Issac Okoro.
An NBA source tells Marc Berman of the New York Post that Okoro “has support among Knicks brass.”
Okoro played one season at Auburn, starting all 28 games he appeared in. He averaged 12.9 points, 4.4 rebounds and two assists per game while shooting 51.4 percent from the field and 28.6 percent from beyond the arc.
Berman mentions that Auburn head coach Bruce Pearl said the Knicks have done their “due diligence” on Okoro.
