2017 NBA Mock Draft 2.0: De’Aaron Fox, Jayson Tatum Rise; Jonathan Isaac, Dennis Smith Fall
By Tony Webb
No. 6 New York Knicks- Malik Monk (Kentucky, FR, Shooting Guard)
Honestly, you could put any player in this spot and the Knicks could benefit from it. New York needs NBA ready players and that’s it.
Malik Monk has limitless range and can knock-down shots from anywhere on the floor. Leading Kentucky with an average of 19.8 points per game, Monk continues to develop his game in other aspects to go with his shooting.
He’s a confident, big-moment ready player and has all the ability to be another scoring option for Melo and K-Taps in The Big Apple. Not even the Knicks can mess up in this deep draft.
