STEP 7: The Knicks were hoping that King’s injury, while unquestionably serious, would only result in him missing the 1985-1986 season. But at the start of the 1986-1987 season, eighteen months after the injury, King had still not recovered, and the Knicks decided to blow everything up and rebuild around reigning Rookie of the Year Patrick Ewing. At this point, NBA history completely changes, because of two dubious roster moves the Knicks made in that rebuild. On November 12, 1986, looking to replace King’s scoring, the Knicks traded for Gerald Henderson (who wasn't much of a replacement, averaging just 11 points per game in his only season in New York). That was the small problem; the big problem was that to get Henderson, the Knicks surrendered a first-round pick swap in the 1987 draft. So when the Knicks missed the playoffs, their #5 pick went to Henderson’s former team, who used it to draft … Scottie Pippen. What team drafted Scottie Pippen at #5 in 1987 (with the Knicks’ draft pick), and then immediately traded him to the Chicago Bulls?
Seattle Supersonics
