It may be easy to forget now, but there was a time when New York was not excited about Kristaps Porzingis. Back on draft night, here's how one young Knicks fan reacted to the Knicks' selection:
To his credit, Porzingis played it off well at the time:
Porzingis: "A lot of fans were unhappy that they drafted me but I have to do what I can to turn those booing fans into clapping hands."

And now that he's exceeded all expectations, he's not just getting applause. He's getting people to buy his jersey, including you know who:

Moral of the story: Don't cry over draft picks. Anything can happen. Besides, you'll be on Vine forever and who wants that?
