24 : New York Knicks select Mason Plumlee, C, Duke

Plumlee could go as high as possibly 17 to Atlanta.  The Jazz probably might look at him but I still think he falls.  If he does fall though, don’t expect him to fall lower than the Knicks at 24.

He is an intelligent big man with good hands.  He also has a knack for finishing around the basket.  Looking at an NBA draft exports report, some GM’s are concerned about Plumlee’s low ceiling.  If they really are concerned, he will drop.  The Knicks could use some help on the front line though.  So if Plumlee is there, they take him.
