We should have really not swapped with the Lakers and taken Dalton Knecht.

This kid looks like he’s going to be a steal for the Lakers. Instead we have a center who will never amount to anything more than Jaxon Hayes.

Sure but you don't get Murray.

I saw all the hype and had to check if the season had started early. It hasn't. I'm not saying he won't be a good player, just that this is still preseason and he went off at a time in the game where it's usually scrub on scrub violence.

Well considering we had to decide well before the draft, it doesn’t really matter. To go along with people not expecting him to drop. Not really losing sleep over not getting a 23 year old rookie.

This was the Phoenix game? KD and Beal played 30 minutes. Not saying he is going to be good, just saying KD was in there guarding Knecht and Bronny.

Strong small forward with great shooting numbers. Reminds me of clay with his shot.

at the time we had to decide, Knecht, by ALL mocks/media out there, wouldn't have been available to us anyway.... he was pretty much a top 10 ten pick, in every single mock at the time of the swap decision....

Knecht is VERY weak on the defensive end. Can't really see having him on the court along with Reaves. But he CAN shoot...so who knows.

Pisses me off that he dropped right in their laps. Thought we could move up and get him when he started dropping.

Knecht would have been buried on the bench with this team
Missi actually has a shot to get some minutes with depth at that position
Pels would have wasted Knecht

Time will tell, but I got to disagree with you. I wanted knecht during the draft. Kid can flat out shoot. Surprised he fell that far honestly.
