The 2024-2025 NBA season is quickly approaching. Recent draft picks have been showcasing their skills in the preseason, to show why they deserve major minutes when regular-season games tip off.
The Los Angeles Lakers' 17th overall pick in the 2024 draft, Dalton Knecht, had a night to remember on Oct.17 against the Phoenix Suns. He scored 20 straight points to finish with 35 in an overtime win. Even though it's the preseason, Knecht is showing promise for a franchise that has produced historic rookie seasons with Jerry West, Elgin Baylor, Magic Johnson and more.
