The New York Knicks have acquired the No. 47 overall pick in the NBA Draft from the Phoenix Suns, according to Shams Charania. The move adds to the Knicks' collection of second-round assets as the draft continues on Wednesday night.
According to sources, the No. 47 selection was sent to New York as one of three second-rounders moving from Phoenix. With this acquisition, the Knicks now hold the No. 31, No. 47, and No. 55 picks in the current draft. The Knicks are now officially on the clock with the 47th pick.
Per Charania, the Knicks have already begun receiving trade offers for the newly acquired selection. Sources indicate that multiple teams have reached out with offers of future draft assets in exchange for the No. 47 pick, providing the front office with the option to either make a selection or further stockpile future capital.
