Rest easy New York. RJ Barrett, the presumptive No. 3 prospect in this year’s draft, is heading to the New York Knicks according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
Charania also reported that the New Orleans Pelicans are set on Zion Williamson with the first pick (no duh) and the Memphis Grizzlies are going to take Ja Morant.
In other words, the top three picks are already set in stone. Ironically enough, the Pelicans are on the clock with the No. 4 selection that they recently acquired from the Los Angeles Lakers in the Anthony Davis blockbuster trade.
