Knicks' Draft Pick: Morez Johnson Jr. for Double-Big Lineups
ESPN Mock Draft: Knicks Consider Morez Johnson Jr. for Double-Big Lineups
The New York Knicks, with Mitchell Robinsons contract expiring, are eyeing Michigans Morez Johnson Jr. in the 2026 draft. The six-nine power forward, capable of playing center, is putting up impressive stats as a sophomore. His rim protection, above-the-rim finishes, and growing post skills, along with his spot-up threes, could complement Karl-Anthony Towns in double-big sets, creating second chances and stretching defenses. However, the Knicks face tough choices, especially if re-signing Robinson becomes too costly amid cap struggles.
