Dalton Knecht Scouting Report | 2024 NBA Draft Breakdowns
Спорт
Dalton Knecht was one of the very best players in college basketball this season getting SEC POY, All American honors and becoming a Naismith finalist as a transfer from Northern Colorado. Despite being older, Knecht's ability to shoot and score it in multiple ways and hang physically on the wing will likely get him looks as high as the Top 10.

had no idea he had any bounce like that. unsure how much it’ll matter in his role in the nba but demonstrates a good athletic baseline.
How he didn't choose to be #4 for Knecht 4 is beyond me.

good one!
This guy knows his shit, great breakdown, as a UT fan, i think you nailed this scout.
Dalton is by far, my FAV CBBP. I loved watching him play on Rocky Top. He has it going on! Gonna miss him, but will be watching him in the NBA. 🧡🧡🧡
Great breakdown, Dalton is my favorite CBB player rn can you do Stephon Castle next ?
Future San Antonio Spur!!
Goated scouting report

To be real I have him going as high as Houston at #9 as late as #15
Love your content!
Knecht is by far the best "ALL AROUND" college basketball player in the country...... On top of that I've never seen someone that is so electrifying. Unbelievable
It's his feet/landing that intrigues me, he has a ability to float when he shoots and it has him landing with balance and stability that makes me think he's going to be a flamethrower shooter in the nba
Any old heads seeing shades of the late, great drazen petrovic?

You love how he can move off ball and get to rim and he a great shooter and he can shoot off movement as well. While his peak might not be high his floor is really good and he can definitely make an impact right now especially since he a older rookie and he played a lot college basketball Looking at this video he reminds me of Corey Kispert of the Wizards a really good driver and a really good three point shooter especially off of movement
Stellar Info
Would love his fit in SA. One guy you mentioned as a age comparison but not a stylistic comparison is Cam Johnson. SA needs to get guys that not only fit next to Wemby, but fit well in a modern NBA play style context. Back in 2019 Phoenix drafted for fit with Cam Johnson and SA doing the same thing here could make a lot of sense. For a team that needs offense getting a legit 6’6 40% shooter that can play in a multitude of movement sets like pop likes would probably be a dream scenario.

I agree. I think you have to truly understand what you have in Wemby. A lot of people want that superstar or star player next to him. I don't think we need that. We need a bunch of guys who play roles and don't go outside of that. Surround Wemby with 3 point shooters solid passers and defenders and you have something. I think Kenecht really fits what we need.

Surely OKC hope to god that he falls to them at 12? They need more shooting, he’d fit the movement and guard-guard screening and can have early impact as an older prospect
Can you do a Buzelis one next? Just subscribed :)
Great as always Keandre! Can we get Stephon Castle anytime soon? Been seeing him top 3 and I think that’s a bit too high. Any thought?
i think his role be a shooter like a buddy hield or luke kennard type guy. I think your comp of THJ is really good!
He’s going top 10 in the draft buddy. Most probably as 8th at San Antonio Spurs.
I'd like to see Dalton at pick #8 with the Spurs!

Pretty sure Portland grabbing him at 7 especially after his solo workout with them yesterday.
While watching this breakdown, dalton gave a lot of shade of Grayson Allen with a touch of kris Middleton to his game
If he was 2 years younger he'd be the number one overall pick hands down! I'm hoping my Blazers get him at 7 because he won't be there at 14 guarantee that! Not in this week draft class with way to many question marks on every other lottery pick.

Would love to see him at OKC

Wingspan from NBA Combine: 6'9
GET HIM TO ORLANDO PLEASE! I know he wont be around for pick 18 but he's so perfect for what we need that it's worth trading up
Luckily I’m not a gm because I would probably draft this guy way to high, I feel like he is gonna be one of the best from this class
he can shoot and not a defensive liability that is great.
I see some DBook if developed correctly
I guarantee you he will play defense better than most NBA players
FINALLY
Pistons at #5 or spurs at #8. Anything after that would be an absolute steal
I don't love the fact that he doesn't sway much on the jumper. Seems like he gets his shoulders back without swaying though
How does he differ from buddy boeheim?
Perfect fit for the Detroit Pistons. Troy Weaver, GO GET HIM‼️‼️‼️
I could see him going to Memphis
Desmond Bane is the comp

Top 5 pick
Gives me some prime Gordon Hayward vibes. I would be ecstatic if he fell to 13 for the king
He'll go to the Blazers at #7.
Toronto would be a fantastic fit at 6 or 17. If Toronto moves into top 3 they will go for Sarr. Look for Toronto to trade boucher and brown at draft.
Reminds me of Kevin Huerter.
moves and shoot like doug mcdermott
We have To move up
I've seem people putting this kid 9th or 10th in the draft but he looks too good to be in those positions. I can't understand how he isn't top 5

Rockets gonna pick this guy,
Mike Miller

I think Bogdan Bogdanovic is almost the perfect comparison. Just sub athleticism for playmaking
Houston can trade their pick to the Spurs and get him at number 6 pick.
Detroit better get this guy
Spurs should replace Julian Champagnie with this guy and make Rob Dillingham backup Tre Jones at first or maybe they can get Topic at 4.

Solid Second Round Pick in my opinion
this dude cannot play defense well enough to be more than a role player at his size. at least doug mcdermott is big enough to put a body on forwards. what is any team going to do with a guy who is too small to guard forwards and too slow to guard wings? not a bad pick in the 15 range, and a stretch at 10, but anyone taking him top 5 (the ringer has him mocked at 4) will regret it.
