4. player. 27. <p>The last thing the New York Knicks need is a draft bust to compound their issues. They have undergone so many organizational changes these past 10 years and consequently have not produced like they probably should have. But with a high draft pick, the Knicks could start to make the climb to the top and end this madness.</p> <p>Part of that plan could be drafting Kristaps Porzingis. While some think he is at the most risk for becoming this year’s draft bust, I think he will do just fine in the NBA. You rarely see someone with as much skill and talent like Porzingis. He can dribble and pass the ball like a guard, and his jump shooting isn’t half bad either. Oh yeah — he’s also <em>seven feet tall.</em></p> <p>That’s right, this foreign big man doesn’t just have the skills and talent necessary to be an NBA forward but he also has the height of a center. The places this man could go in the league are endless. The only real worry is his frame, which currently stands at 220 pounds. But there is no reason he can’t put on 15-20 pounds this offseason and emerge as a solid big man for the Knicks.</p>. PF. Latvia. Kristaps Porzingis
