ATLANTA — The 2020 NBA Draft, scheduled for June 25, will be a monumental for the Knicks, who may have three selections in the top 35.

However, coronavirus has suspended the NBA season until further notice and impeded the Knicks scouting staff’s attempt to do any more live college scouting.

Every major college conference tournament and the NCAA Tournament were canceled Thursday, giving the Knicks much less opportunity to scout prospects.

Even if the NCAA Tournament had gone on without fans as the organization announced Wednesday, the Knicks scouting department would have been banned anyway.

While essential personnel were to be allowed into the tourney games if they happened, NBA front-office personnel/scouts weren’t going to be permitted, according to an industry source. And that would have included new Knicks president Leon Rose, the former agent who has been on the job just nine days.

The industry source said NBA front-office personnel are not credentialed for the tournament and have to buy tickets. With that fan ban, no special exception would have been made for the NBA.

Knicks GM Scott Perry has told confidants he doesn’t scout at a lot of NCAA Tournament games because usually the seats are subpar.

However, last season Perry and former president Steve Mills bolted at halftime of a Knicks matinee at the Garden to fly to an NCAA Tournament regional in Tulsa, Okla., to get a final look at lottery pick Jarrett Culver of Texas Tech.

NFL teams, including the Giants and Jets, are pulling their coaches and scouts off the road.

The Knicks are expected to have their own lottery pick and the first-round pick of the Clippers, which should be in the No. 25 range. They also own the Hornets’ second-round pick, which will be in the 30s.

The Post reported the Knicks have prioritized a scoring point guard with their lottery pick. That’s because they feel set at shooting guard with RJ Barrett.

However, the mock drafts are settling on Georgia’s Anthony Edwards, a shooting guard, as the top overall pick. The top point guard in many projections is LaMelo Ball, who played in Australia before shutting down his season in December. The Post reported nobody from the Knicks front office or scouting staff traveled to Australia to see Ball play.
