Former Knicks draft pick found dead in SUV in Brooklyn

A man found dead in his SUV under a pile of trash bags in Brooklyn has been identified as a college hoops star once drafted by the Knicks, officials said.

Michael Wright, 35, was found dead of a head wound inside his Lexus SUV in Midwood about 11 a.m. on Tuesday. His body was sprawled in the backseat covered with garbage bags, according to police sources.

An autopsy was scheduled to determine how he died, although a police source said Wright was bipolar and may have taken his own life.
