If falling into the second round of the NBA Draft bothered Cleanthony Early, he hid it behind his excitement at joining the New York Knicks.
Early, born in the Bronx, spoke to reporters on a conference call Monday and focused on his future. Projected by many to go in the first round, Early waited at Brooklyn’s 40/40 Club on Thursday evening until the Knicks grabbed him with the 34th pick, four spots into the second round.
"It’s a blessing," he said. "I can’t ask for a better position. It’s where I was born and where I was raised."
