ORLANDO – There’s another 6-10, small-forward, teenaged prodigy born in
Europe on the KnicksNew York Knicks ’ radar. And it’s not the Italian
Stallion, Dino Gallinari.
During media availability yesterday for lottery hopefuls, LSU freshman
Anthony Randolph said he believes the Knicks, Charlotte and Milwaukee have
shown the most interest in him of the lottery clubs. Like Gallinari, Randolph
can play power forward and small forward but is more athletic than Gallinari
and blocks shots, a big priority for Knicks president Donnie Walsh.
Randolph said he’s already scheduled a workout with the Knicks in June.
Randolph grew up in Dallas but was born in Germany. Randolph averaged 15.6
points and 8.5 rebounds and 2.3 blocks. “I would love to play for New York,’
’ Randolph said. “ A great city, fans are great down there and to be able
to play under a coach (Mike D’Antoni) that would be a strength because he
likes to play up and down and that’s the game I’m most accustomed to.’’
Randolph is late on the lottery scene. “I’ve been underestimated my whole
life,’’ Randolph said.
Told the Knicks were last in shotblocking, Randolph said, “I’m going to
raise it up and make it higher.’’
Walsh would love to draft a point guard but has to decide if Jerryd Bayless
is a playmaker the club needs. The Arizona guard said he grew up watching
Mike D’Antoni’s offense and Steve Nash has showed him “tricks.’’
