New York Knicks 

The Knicks can’t mess up this draft, right? Last season was terrible, and New York only really has Kristaps Porzingis to build around at this point.

Smith could alleviate the need for a non-Derrick Rose point guard, while also playing heavy minutes in a major market. Don’t be surprised if the fans aren’t too happy with this pick when it happens, though.
