The wildest NCAA Tournament of all-time continued on Mar. 18. Which 2018 NBA Draft prospects stepped up and how would they fit with the New York Knicks?


The 2018 NCAA Tournament is officially the wildest in history. As the New York Knicks attempt to evaluate NBA Draft prospects, the Cinderella stories are in abundance and the upsets have been more prolific than ever before.

Thankfully, in a sea of madness, the Knicks were still given quality performances to evaluate by potential 2018 NBA Draft prospects.

Entering the Sweet 16, two No. 1 seeds and a pair of No. 2 seeds have already gone down. Two No. 3 seeds have followed in their footsteps, as has a No. 4 seed and a number of other teams that were projected to go on a run.

March Madness has always been flush with unpredictable events, but what’s transpired in 2018 is unlike anything in the illustrious history of the NCAA Tournament.

True as that may be, the Knicks haven’t been entirely stripped of prospects who are worth looking into. The talent level is still compelling and the NBA potential of the stars who remain in the NCAA Tournament could prove to be legitimate.

The question is: Who were the 2018 NBA Draft prospects and New York Knicks targets who stepped up on what ended up being one of the wildest days in NCAA Tournament history?
