Dalton knecht?

I don't know much about his current situation but I remember him being solid offensively before. How would y'all feel about adding a little more shooting versatility?

He’s not solid offensively. Hes a shooter that’s not that great at shooting consistently. He needs the ball in his hands to be effective.

Pass tbh. He’s a less potent Reed Sheppard essentially

This is a stupid comparison. Reed is an infinitely better and different player than Dalton Knecht

Ya I dumbed it down a lot for the sake of brevity but my point is adding a shooter who isn’t even a great shooter and adds little else in other areas ain’t gonna do anything.

Probably not a player you want in the rotation, however Knecht 4 is a very cool nickname.

He's not an NBA player

tbh I doubt he could even hack it on mid level Euroleague teams.

Couldn’t catch a rotation spot on a tanking team, that says everything.

I’m not going to say that when we have Tate on the roster.

Knecht is much worse than Tate.

We’ve got Bogdan, who’s twice the player…

He’s just a much worse Reed Sheppard

He is 25, and one month older than Tari Eason. Don't let his draft year fool you.

His only thing is 3P, he is useless in any other area, even someone like JJ Reddick ditched him, imagine Ime.

For comparable, Cam Thomas is out of a job, who is only 24 btw, and way better offensive player than Dalton.
