Devin Vassell discussed the conversation with Tom Thibodeau during training Knicks

Devin Vassell is considered among the top 10 talents in this year’s NBA Draft class. There has been a lot of intrigue for the Florida state guard, with the Knicks among the teams. Even the Golden State Warriors, who own the No. 2 in the draft, they solved it.

Vassell confirmed that the Knicks also watched him train and had a good conversation with new manager Tom Thibodeau.

“Coach Thibodeau was definitely in training and I spoke to him,” Vassell told reporters Thursday. “He’s a great coach and we talked about defense. We talked about what their team is looking for and I feel like I can help that team and fill that void. I think everything went very well with the Knicks and the manager and it would be a blessing to be part of that team. “

Scoring 12.7 points per game with 42 percent shots from beyond the arc is something the Knicks are looking for in a potential point guard. Vassell is also 6 feet tall and has the ability to defend larger players than the position normally.
