Knicks fans are doing crazy things in the hopes of landing Zion Williamson

Everyone is pretty sure who the number one pick in June's NBA draft will be. What we're not sure of his where Zion Williamson will play.

Three teams — the New York Knicks, Cleveland Cavaliers, and Phoenix — all have a 14 percent chance of winning the lottery, which would allow them to select the 18-year-old phenom out of Duke, who many consider the most-hyped basketball player since LeBron James entered the draft out of high school in 2003.

Fans really, really want Williamson on their team. But no one seems to want him more than long-suffering Knicks fans, who always seem to be in a state of crisis went it comes to their moribund, but once proud franchise. In recent months, Knicks fans have burned jerseys of their former star as a form of sacrifice, and begged NBA Commissioner Adam Silver to rig the lottery for them. Here are three more crazy things Knicks fans have said and done on lottery day in the hopes of landing Williamson.
