When the Los Angeles Lakers drafted Dalton Knecht, the initial thought was he could immediately contribute which led to inflated NBA Rookie of the Year odds.
One of the best pure shooters in his draft class, Knecht had an easy path toward minutes but so far he has struggled shooting the basketball.
Although the results haven’t been there for Knecht, who is shooting 38.6% from the field and 28.9% from 3-point range through his first 10 games, head coach JJ Redick is still happy with the shots he’s taking and believes they’ll go down at some point.
