Many have asked who the New York Knicks will choose to give the team luck at the NBA Draft Lottery. We now have our answer.

The New York Knicks have selected Knicks legend Walt “Clyde” Frazier to represent the team at the NBA Draft Lottery tomorrow night.

This is the first time since the 2015 NBA Draft Lottery that the lottery will be meaningful to the team as last season, the Knicks’ first-round pick was traded to Toronto.

Frazier is certainly an improvement over Knicks GM Steve Mills, who was the last figure to represent the team at the lottery. Hopefully, Frazier is able to bring the team more luck than Mills, who was representing the team when they fell from the second overall spot to the fourth overall spot in the 2015 Draft.
