2024 Draft Profile - Dalton Knecht

Kevin O'Connor - The Ringer - June 17th: "A dynamic, knockdown 3-point shooter from deep ranges. He can sprint into the wing or readjust in midair to fire accurately coming off of screens. Talented shooter off the dribble with multiple moves to create space."

NBA Draft Room - June 16th: "Knecht might not be the highest upside player but he’s one of the premier shooters in the draft and is also a big time athlete, a fierce competitor and clutch shot-maker."

Jeremy Woo - ESPN - June 7th: "The reliability of his skill set as a legitimate scorer with positional size coming off an efficient season bodes well in the long run, dispelling most of the concerns about his advanced age for a lottery pick. He has the size, instincts and shooting ability that should translate effectively in an offense-driven NBA."

Sam Vecenie - The Athletic - June 5th: "His offense should translate to NBA settings. Not only is he a terrific shooter, especially off movement, but also he’s a higher-end athlete than most shooters who can sky in transition and finish inside with hang time."

Colin Ward-Henninger - CBS Sports - June 4th: "He's also a great cutter who can attack closeouts and finish above the rim with his 6-foot-9 wingspan. Already 23 years old, Knecht's NBA learning curve shouldn't be too steep."

Zach Buckley - Bleacher Report - June 4th: "The 6'6" scorer is skilled, polished and super-productive. His lone season in the SEC (he transferred to Tennessee from Northern Colorado) yielded 21.7 points per game and a 45.8/39.7/77.2 shooting slash."

Jonathan Wasserman - Bleacher Report - May 30th: "At 23 years old with a strong frame, outstanding shotmaking ability and a competitive edge."
