ESPN and DraftExpress have us taking Tony Mitchell with the 24th pick.
The guy reminds me a little of Wilson Chandler. In an interview with after his workout with Portland, Mitchell said he thinks he is a PF and brings rebounding and defense.
If he can grab boards and defend he might allow us to slide Melo back to SF.

So we play with a C/ PF combo that rebounds and defends and cant score.

I dont know what kind of offensive game Mitchell brings to the table. I wouldnt be upset with Wilson Chandler 2.0

He is no where near Wilson Chandler--but he does have a really good body and athletic ability. I think Kenyon Martin without the warrior mentality is about right. Now that warrior mentality is a special--and I do not believe this guy has that. Wed be drafting a really nice athlete who does have skills who has upside. He can rebound now in the nBA finish after that he would need work. There are very few 6-9 240 pd guys with 40 i9nch vertical presently living on this world--so he has a lottery body.

The Knicks are working out Ricky Ledo and Tony Mitchell on Friday.
OH YEA!

+1 he doesn't fit this team as currently constructed.
