Wizards land UM’s Kyshawn George, picked 24th in NBA draft, in trade with Knicks

Kyshawn George did not spend much time in a Miami Hurricanes uniform, but he showed NBA scouts enough for them to take him in the first round of this year’s draft.

The New York Knicks selected Kyshawn George with the 24th pick on Wednesday night, and they are trading him to the Washington Wizards, according to multiple reports. He is the first Miami player picked in the first round since the Spurs selected Lonnie Walker IV in 2018. George is the sixth first-round pick in UM history.
