The New York Knicks found their franchise centerpiece when they drafted Kristaps Porzingis with the fourth overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft. Since that point, some fans and media have tried to run Carmelo Anthony out of town and anoint Porzingis the new “boss” of New York.
The problem is that so far, the 7-foot-3 Latvian has not shown the capability to carry a franchise. Being 21-years-old and in his second year, Porzingis is still young.
