Did not have a first-round pick; the Knicks have traded significant draft capital (no first-round picks in 2025, 2027, 2029 and 2031) to build this team. Back-to-back 50-win seasons and an Eastern Conference finals appearance this season are the results so far.

The two days of the 2025 NBA Draft are over, with all 59 selections being made. There were a few trades, too, but not a ton. And now, after we graded every pick in the first round -- and yes, we graded all the picks in the second round too! -- it’s time to hand out some grades and rank all 30 teams by their draft classes.

The 2025 NBA Draft is in the books and the next group of potential stars now know where they will begin their professional careers. This year's draft was split into two nights, with Round 2 taking place on Thursday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
