Devin Vassell has the talent to be one of the steals of the 2020 NBA Draft.
The Florida State six-foot-six guard with Georgia roots fits the mold of the prototypical “three and D” athlete. The New York Knicks are in desperate need of shooting and players who complement rookies RJ Barrett and second-year center Mitchell Robinson.
On the surface, Vassell may be a reach for the Knicks, dependent on their draft position, but similar to other analytics darlings in the past, Vassell’s draft stock may rise. The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie had Vassell going as high as the 11th selection in his most recent mock draft.
