    The New York Knicks have the No. 4 pick in the upcoming NBA draft, but they will take a strong look at a player projected to be taken in the middle of the first round.

    New York will work out Murray State’s Cameron Payne during the week of June 15, a league source confirmed.

    League sources with knowledge of the team's thinking say the Knicks are doing more than their due diligence by working out Payne; they are “serious” about considering him in the draft, those sources say.

    Payne is widely viewed as a player who will be taken in the middle-to-late first round. So the Knicks’ interest in Payne and, to a lesser degree, their interest in Willie Cauley-Stein, is a sign that they are at least considering trading down from No. 4.
