The New York Knicks possess the eighth pick in the NBA Draft. With that pick, they’ll be looking to find a franchise altering player. However, they simultaneously possess two second-round picks (44 and 58). Could selecting Wisconsin forward Nigel Hayes with one of those two picks make sense?
According to Ian Begley of ESPN New York, the Knicks will be working out Hayes this coming week. The 6-foot-8 forward could very well find his niche in the big apple if they like what they see. Hayes though, likely won’t be selected until the second round pf the draft and should be available when the Knicks select at 44.
