The New York Knicks have three picks in the 2024 NBA Draft, including No. 24 and 25 in the first round. That means that the franchise could add three new players to the roster, or potentially utilize the draft capital to move up or trade for an impact player.
Bleacher Report’s Jonathan Wasserman projected the Knicks to take Virginia forward Ryan Dunn with the No. 24 pick, Dayton center DaRon Holmes II with the No. 25 pick and UCLA center Adem Bona with the No. 38 pick in his latest mock draft.
Other players that could be available include Pacome Dadiet, Bobi Klintman and Jaylon Tyson. Additionally, multiple picks toward the top of the first round may be on the trade block. This could potentially help the team net a player like Matas Buzelis, Cody Williams or Ron Holland, who were all projected as Top-10 picks by Wasserman.
These options would likely not replace Anunoby’s production yet, but could be cheaper options that have development opportunity. Since New York’s contention window appears to have just opened recently, grabbing a developmental piece could be appealing as opposed to overspending in free agency or on the trade market.
