The New York Knicks need more talent all over the court, and Jayson Tatum could be just the right player for them. Carmelo Anthony will likely play a few more years, and Tatum could learn from one of the best small forwards in the game. It should also be noted that Tatum is also 6’8 with a 7-foot wingspan, meaning that the direct comparisons between the two are clearly there.
