Knicks Draft 2025: Top Targets

Amari is a bigman who possesses a massive wingspan at 7’6”. He can block shots and force defenders to shoot nearly 7% worse at the rim than usual. He’s also a terrific passer for a guy his size. He’s always looking for the open guy, and his passes are almost always crisp.

He doesn't provide much offense, especially from deep, and doesn't have a great handle when forced to create, but he can finish strong.

I sometimes worried about his fit at the next level, but I don't care anymore because Dixon is a flat-out hooper! He’s insanely efficient at all three levels and has great range. He shot 40% from three on seven attempts per game and is a great free throw shooter at over 82% in last four years at Nova.

Dixon led the NCAA in scoring and maintained it once conference play hit. His defense is a bit of a concern as he’s not a great athlete; he won’t give you much as a rim protector or defensive playmaker.

Talent-wise, Dink might be a top-20 pick alone, but he struggled a lot in the G-League, although he made strides in Year 2. He might just be worth a shot for New York at #50 because of the talent alone. He has the size and scoring ability you want in a wing, and if coached up properly, he could become a solid rotation player.

The efficiency numbers aren't pretty: he shot below 38% and below 25% from three in the G-League altogether. I know that sounds bad, but he played under bad circumstances, and I feel like he has potential to become a way more efficient player at the next level. 

He might be my #1 target for the Knicks, although I think he'll be gone by #50. But if he’s not, dear Leon and company: TAKE HIM!!!! He’s an absolute sniper from three-point range. He showed he can shoot it with the best when he transferred over from Dayton to big-time Kentucky and the SEC, hitting 43% of his threes on high volume. He also shot 91% at the free throw line.

Brea is simply the best shooter in the class. Yes, he has some issues on the defensive side along with poor measurables, but I don’t care - he can shoot it!
