QUICK: Who was the best player in college basketball in the 2014-15 season? Easy — Frank “The Tank” Kaminsky. Kaminsky being the best player in college hoops is really starting to pay off for him as the rumors are running wild and his stock is skyrocketing.
Latest NYK info from sources: if Okafor/Russell gone, Knicks like either Kristaps Porzingis, Frank Kaminsky or Trey Lyles. Mudiay hovering

Plenty of ifs there, but there is still a chance that Frank The Tank lands at pick No. 4. Considering he has been projected right around the No. 10 pick, you could say the New York Knicks would be reaching for him early on in the 2015 NBA Draft. Well, they should reach away.
We have already seen how great Kaminsky can be out on the basketball court, unlike a player like Kristaps Porzingis, who is getting all of his hype based on upside.
Here are three reasons why the Knicks really should consider the Wisconsin big man (well, if Jahlil Okafor and D’Angelo Russell aren’t available): (1) Kaminsky can score from anywhere on the court (he hit 41.6 percent of his threes this season), (2) he stands at 7-foot-1 and (3) he is arguably the most NBA-ready player in this draft class.
Take it away, Chad Ford:
2. Frank the Tank is on fire. Phil Jackson loves him. So does Vlade Divac. Michael Jordan won’t pass on him at 9. 4-9 his new range. — Chad Ford (@chadfordinsider) June 25, 2015
