9. New York Knicks – Miles Bridges, F, Michigan State

There are questions about Miles Bridges’ ability to hit a consistent jumper, but the overall talent is there for the former Michigan State Spartan. And if the Knicks can take a chance on that raw talent, they should.

From the players available at this point in the Draft, Miles likely has the highest possible ceiling. New York isn’t a team that’s going to be competing any time soon, so this is a risk that they have the luxury of taking on.
