Keels was selected by the Knicks with the No. 42 pick in the 2022 NBA Draft.
At 6-foot-3, 224 pounds, Keels is a physical presence who barrels to the rim. While he needs to improve his shooting, Keels has shown an ability to get to the free-throw line and is a good passer. The Duke product's defense is also a bit of a question mark, as he's not a great lateral athlete.
