Knicks draft pick Kevin Knox has been unleashing ferocious dunks and burying threes while dominating in the Summer League.
Here's what the experts have said about Knox, mixed with highlights of him being awesome...
"He's long, he's athletic, he can play multiple positions. I think he has tremendous upside." - Knicks GM Scott Perry
"Save Michael Porter Jr., Knox is arguably the most talented combo forward in this draft in terms of sheer ability and upside as one of this class' youngest players." - Mike Schmitz, ESPN

"He's a guy that is willing and wants to play the way Fizdale wants the team to play. ... the size that he has, the athleticism that he has. He's the perfect fit for how we want to play." - Knicks president Steve Mills
"He's f--king really good," an anonymous executive told The Athletic's Mike Vorkunov. "A real stud."

"He does remind you a little bit of Jayson Tatum." - Mike Greenberg, ESPN
"I think he'll be productive right away. His body of work, his skill set says it and fits and translates. He can shoot the ball, finish well around the rim. He runs the floor well. He knows how to get to spots. Guys who are natural scorers, that stuff translates. We all like how that kid [Tatum] is looking in Boston now. I'm not putting that pressure on this kid to be him. But it just does when you have that skill set at that height, that athleticism. I see him being a very productive player [as a rookie]." - Knicks head coach David Fizdale

"I think he is the sleeper. ... he is going to grow into his body. He is the youngest player in the draft [at 19 years old]. I like that he can move without the ball. He looks a little sleepy but I am telling you what, he is a really good athlete and (coach) Calipari talked about being a good teammate and sacrificing for the Kentucky way, he has shown me that he can do that. I think this young man has a bright future in the league." - Former NBA player Jalen Rose
