Darius Garland To Conduct Last-Minute Workout With Knicks 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Jun 18, 2019 5:51 pm

Darius Garland will conduct a last-minute workout on Wednesday for the New York Knicks.


The Knicks own the No. 3 pick and will consider him with that selection. The Knicks have been most strongly tied to R.J. Barrett with the No. 3 pick.


The Minnesota Timberwolves, Boston Celtics and Chicago Bulls are also interested in Garland as the New Orleans Pelicans shop the selection.

While injuries are part of any sports league - can not risk a pick as high as #3 on a player coming off of a torn meniscus.

Pelicans must be making a good offer to move up 1 spot. They definitely want Barrett and Zion if they can make it happen

Knicks are likely not going to pick Barrett at 3. Pels should keep the pick and draft him. That'll take care of their 1-2 punch option.

Maybe.. but Steph is still 6'4. Darius is 6 foot.
