The 2018-19 NBA Season has yet to start, neither has the 2018-19 NCAA Basketball Season. But, who says we can’t take a look at possible prospects for the 2019 NBA Draft?
The 2018-19 NCAA Basketball Season has yet to start, but it already looks like the 2019 NBA Draft could be one of the strongest we’ve seen in years. So, many great players at every single position and theNew York Knickscould benefit in a large way from just that.
The 2018-19 Draft could see big names such asRJ Barrett,Zion Williamson,Nassir Little,Cam Reddish,Bol Bol,Darius Garland,Romeo Langford,Tre Jones,Shareef O’Nealand so many more. Based on just those names alone you can see that this draft has the opportunity to turn a franchise around no matter where they are picking.
If the Knicks play their cards right this season based on the events that have happened the past few weeks, it is very possible that they end up with a top ten pick and more than likely a lottery pick.
WithKristaps Porzingisout for a large portion of the season in 2018-19 and no solid upgrade from last season when they went 29-53, it is highly unlikely that we see a playoff team on the court this season.
Even with the Eastern Conference being as weak as it is now, it is highly unlikely we see the Knicks win more than 35-40 games.
However, if Kristaps Porzingis comes back sooner than expected,Trey Burkepicks up where he left off,Kevin Knoxjoins the Rookie of the Year conversation and a few other circumstances occur, we could see a playoff team in New York.
But if these things do not happen, it is highly unlikely the Knicks make the playoffs. So with that being said lets look at a way too early list of potential prospects for the 2019 NBA Draft.
