OKC then was able to take Dillon Jones from Weber State.
The Knicks earlier acquired that pick after exchanging it for No. 24 with the Wizards.
With pick No. 25, the Knicks took 18-year-old Pacome Dadiet, a French wing who played in Germany this past season.
JUNE 26 KNICKS RIVALING CELTICS? Less than 24 hours after the New York Knicks traded for Mikal Bridges, the front office struck free agency while the iron was hot. New York intends to sign OG Anunoby to a five-year, $212.5 million deal. According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, the contract includes a player option and a trade kicker.
The Knicks, like the Boston Celtics, loaded their roster with two versatile wings as they contend for a championship next season.
JUNE 24 OG DECISION The New York Knicks now know that OG Anunoby is declining his $19.9 million player option and will officially become a free agent, with that window opening June 30.
Anunoby's move is not a surprise ... and he remains a New York priority, with speculation centering on a deal that might come in at an average of at $35 million.
