Knicks, Sixers Among Teams Planning to Work Out Dennis Smith Jr.

The Knicks and 76ers are among the teams who’ve reached out to N.C. State point guard Dennis Smith Jr.’s camp to set up workouts ahead of the NBA Draft, a source told ZAGSBLOG.

The Sixers pick at No. 3 and the Knicks at No. 8, per DraftExpress.com. The Kings, who pick at Nos. 5 and 10, and the Wolves (No.7) also reached out.

Knicks President Phil Jackson said last week at the NBA Draft Combine that his team was looking for “guards and wings.”

The Knicks are seemingly in position to draft either Smith Jr. or French product Frank Ntilikina, who could be a good fit in the triangle offense.
