Knicks draft picks: Updated look at every selection in 2025, 2026 and beyond

After a couple of years of waiting (that felt more like an eternity), the New York Knicks cashed in their draft assets this summer. It wasn't for a star, but instead, for Mikal Bridges. Leon Rose paid a high price to add another former Villanova player to the roster.

New York sent four unprotected first-round picks (2025, 2027, 2029, and 2031), a protected 2025 first-round pick via Milwaukee, an unprotected 2028 pick swap, and a 2025 second-round pick via Brooklyn. The Nets got a haul from the Knicks, but New York didn't entirely wipe out its arsenal.
