The New York Knicks will enter the 2017 NBA Draft with a rare lottery pick. Set to come off the board at No. 8 overall, the Knicks will have an opportunity to build for the future by selecting a perimeter complement to Kristaps Porzingis and Willy Hernangomez.
If a recent report holds true, then one of the prospects whom the Knicks are considering is North Carolina State Wolfpack point guard Dennis Smith.
Smith is widely regarded as a potential Top 10 draft pick and a point guard with genuine star potential. He’s an explosive athlete who made his name as a lethal scoring threat and dynamic facilitator during his freshman season.
