Knicks Land Tyler Nickel at No. 47 in a Four-Team Trade
The defending-champion New York Knicks came away with one of the draft's best shooters, acquiring Vanderbilt wing Tyler Nickel in a four-team draft-night trade after Phoenix selected him with the 47th pick. The movement shooter averaged 13.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 1.2 assists on 44.5 percent shooting and 40.0 percent from three, hoisting 7.6 triples a night and burying 110 of them as a senior. Nickel is a Duncan Robinson-style specialist whose game starts and mostly ends with floor spacing, and Mike Brown's staff has a track record of developing exactly that. The catch for fantasy is the roster: he lands on a loaded title team and may not even open the year on a standard contract. He is a deep-watch shooter, nothing more, until he proves he can stick.
