As of Mar. 2, the New York Knicks sit second in the 2019 NBA Draft Lottery odds. The worst three records share an even 14-percent chance at the first overall pick, but whoever owns the worst record can only fall to fifth in the final order.

However, New York will have a backcourt need entering the draft. They have points guards in Dennis Smith Jr.
