Kabongo was still available.

Not sure why they didn't take Kabongo or even Brewer. Maybe Morgan is a late bloomer.

WKnicks select Kevin Kapers in the third round.

Every other team passed on him too. Must be something we don't know

Not sure but he was listed on a couple of sites as one of the bigger names in the draft. I saw Ronnie Brewer had a dui last summer.

Fredette is thinking along those lines. He waived off European offers to try the D-League. He signed a D-League contract Thursday and the Spurs didn’t claim his rights, leaving him eligible for the draft.

Does this mean that the Knicks claimed the rights of Atkins, Trice, and Saunders, since they have not been drafted at this point...or are they just not draft worthy in the early rounds?

Just wondering- only know about Thanasis, and that was his choice.

I believe so. I didn't see their names on the list of guys eligible to be drafted.
I did a quick search on Kapers. The Celtics brought him in for a predraft workout.

The Knicksblog is saying that the KNicks also drafted Jordan Crawford.

They also picked up Duke Mondy.

From Berman:
The move was designed mostly as a gate attraction and not strictly a developmental move.
