Know The Draftee: Jericho Sims

Knicks fans went into the 2021 NBA draft with high hopes. Coming off of a surprise playoff appearance, there were rumors of the front office looking to move up in the draft to grab standouts like experienced two-way player Chris Duarte, New York native James Bouknight or NCAA champion Davion Mitchell. When no moves were made and the team traded down to select Quentin Grimes at 25, there was some disappointment and questions coming out of the fan base. While the front office was able to nab Miles McBride with the 36th pick, a big steal in the eyes of many, picking Jericho Sims right before draft night ended might prove to be just as big of a steal.
