Dalton Knecht, G/F, Tennessee
Meanwhile, Knecht may split the difference between Castle and Dillingham.
He won't be an offensive liability. A dead-eye shooter, Knecht connected on 39.7% of his triples this year. If nothing else, he'll be a floor spacer at the NBA level.
Yet, at 6'6" with plus athleticism, he should also be a solid defensive presence. Knecht should be a day-one contributor in the NBA with a 3-and-D skillset. What's not to like?
Well, his star potential is likely low. It's difficult to envision Knecht creating shots at the NBA level. For a Rockets team that's brimming with young talent, that may not be an issue.
