Georgia. Anthony Edwards. 4. player. 27. Scouting Report. Pick Analysis. Shooting Guard

The New York Knicks grab one of the top shooting guards in this draft class with Anthony Edwards. While Edwards is more of a score-first player, he has the upside to become a good two-way player.

The Knicks need complimentary players and Edwards is not exactly that. However, his upside is worth betting on with the fourth overall pick, and Tom Thibodeau has been praised for his player development skills in the past.

New York needs to make this draft about surrounding RJ Barrett with talent, and getting an extremely talented player with a top-5 pick would be a step in the right direction, despite Edwards not being the best fit.
