The New York Knicks are receiving a super-talented player with a ton of upside in Kevin Knox. The swingman from Kentucky wasn’t always the clear-cut choice, but on draft day, there didn’t seem to be much anticipation.
Sure, Mikal Bridges was the odds-on favorite for the past few months, but as the pick drew nearer, Knox was no surprise.
He even may have tipped his hand in an interview on Hot 97. When asked about the team he said, “We got a new coach—they got a new coach.” He said “we” in reference to the Knicks.
