The 2016-17 NBA season has not gone as planned for the New York Knicks. Expectations were skyhigh with possible home court advantage in the first round. Currently, with a record of 27-42, those expectations are only a dream and at this point, New York is battling for a better draft position rather than a playoff seed.
The good news for the Knicks is that Malik Monk should be right there waiting when the commissioner steps up to the podium to announce their pick.
Monk is a freshman guard from the University of Kentucky.
