NBA Mock Draft 3.0: Top-five shakeup, Knicks get playmaker
NY Post
The day has finally arrived after months of hype, intrigue and anticipation. The NBA draft, considered one of the best in years with a loaded group of prospects at the top and impressive depth throughout, is at last here.
Below is how The Post sees the night unfolding:
There are nights during an 82-game season where every lingering issue around a team crashes down on it all at once, creating a veritable tsunami of a loss.
Another day, another AL East team making a big splash, and the only white smoke around Yankee Stadium is coming out of fans’ ears given their frustration over a quiet offseason to date.
The Knicks’ legs just weren’t there.
Tony Jefferson’s best friends told him to stay retired.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. — Just call him O.T. Miller.
INDIANAPOLIS — Mike Brown said it was “an organizational decision” to not raise an NBA Cup banner and didn’t talk to players about how it contradicted what he told them previously.
Tyler Austin, a former Yankee once referred to by Brian Cashman as a “mega prospect,” is back in the majors.
ST. LOUIS, Mo. — Sporting a red noncontact jersey, Adam Fox rejoined the Rangers for morning skate Thursday.
INDIANAPOLIS — Tyler Kolek sent another message that he’s deserving of a real chance at more minutes and the backup point guard spot.
Gabe Perreault is making his call-up to the Rangers count.
Clay Holmes is trusting that Mets officials have a grand plan this offseason that will explain the roster’s makeover.
Danny Wolf is as honored with his Jewish Joker nickname — a nod to Nikola Jokic — as he is amused by Draymond Green’s profane reaction to it.
The Jets are taking a chance on another quarterback, signing former college star Hendon Hooker to the practice squad Thursday.
