Nathan Knight may not be an elite scorer like his days at William and Mary, but his impact for the Atlanta Hawks has been impressive in his rookie season. As the Hawks have dealt with injuries in the frontcourt, Knight has made the most of his opportunity by protecting the paint and dominating the glass.
As Clint Capela has been sidelined with a heel injury, the Hawks’ rotation has opened up new opportunities for guys like Knight. And how has he done? Terrific to say the least.
