Borrego is currently the associate head coach of the Pelicans under Willie Green. The 47-year-old Borrego was the Hornets’ head coach for four seasons before he was fired after the 2021-22 season. Borrego is the fourth known person to interview with the Knicks joining Mike Brown, Taylor Jenkins and Micah Nori. The Knicks are still looking for a new coach after parting ways with Tom Thibodeau shortly after losing in the Eastern Conference finals.

Dickinson spent three years at Michigan before transferring to Kansas for the last two, and he was a strong producer throughout his college career. He’s a big-bodied center with decent touch that can also pass the ball. He’ll get a chance to show that he deserves a spot in the NBA for the Birmingham Squadron, but it’s unlikely he cracks the rotation next season.

Peavy spent the first four seasons of his college career in the Big 12, playing one season at Texas Tech and three at TCU, before transferring to Georgetown for his fifth year. And he exploded as a scorer with the Hoyas, averaging 17.2 points, 5.8 rebounds. 3.6 assists, 2.3 steals and 1.6 three-pointers in 37 minutes per game. Shooting 48.1 percent from the field and 65.9 percent from the foul line, Peavy led the Big East in steals and earned all-conference honors. The defensive ability and athletic tools make him an intriguing 3-and-D prospect, but Peavy will have to show that he can sustain the perimeter shooting he displayed at Georgetown. New Orleans pushed their chips in with their moves in recent days, and Peavy should be a solid depth piece for them immediately, though there isn’t a clear path to minutes.

Sure, there are concerns about Fears after some inefficient play at Oklahoma, but he has loads of potential. Fears averaged 17.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 1.6 steals per game as an 18-year-old as the focal point of the offense in arguably the toughest conference in the NCAA. He’s a bit undersized, and there are questions about how he’ll impact the game defensively, but Fears is an intriguing offensive talent with the ability to run an offense and create his own shot, both at the rim and from beyond the arc. There aren’t many players in this draft that can get to the rim like Fears. The fit with the Pelicans is a bit curious given the team just traded for a point guard in Jordan Poole and already had Dejounte Murray.
