It’s incredibly early in the college basketball season, and we don’t have much in the way of a clear-cut number one pick. That said, the early returns on Georgia 2-guard Anthony Edwards have been phenomenal.
Edwards would be a nice complement to Steph Curry and Klay Thompson as he’s more of a slashing-type guard that has drawn comparisons to a young Dwyane Wade.
As for the Knicks, there is now internal pressure for them to get some sort of star power back at Madison Square Garden. Not only are the Knicks non-competitive, but they are also now dull.
On Monday, it was reported that team president Steve Mills is “laying the groundwork” to fire head coach David Fizdale.
