The Knicks don’t presently own a first-round selection in Wednesday night’s NBA Draft in Brooklyn.
That means they likely will have to wait until the event’s second day to make the first offseason addition to their roster, barring a trade.
While they wait for their current position at No. 50 overall in Thursday’s second round, the Knicks will watch the outcomes of the first two of the five first-rounders they shipped to the Nets in the Mikal Bridges deal last summer.
Brooklyn received what turned out to be the No. 19 pick via Milwaukee in the swap, plus the Knicks’ scheduled pick at No. 26.
