NYKDalton KnechtDevelopment𝕏 Beat2d

Knecht is a scorer with range and a midrange game who still has to work defensively.

“He's a scorer. He's not just a shooter... But he can go get it. He can shoot from range. He's got a medium game. He can get to the rim. He can pass. He's got to work defensively. And I thought tonight he tried to play within himself and contributed the best way he could.”

Shot quality alone doesn't determine outcomes without mental toughness and game flow.

“As coaches, we have to check our process, like, are we getting the right shots? But it kind of doesn't matter, right? Because there's more than that. There is the mental toughness and physical toughness. The flow of the game, how aggressive you are, there's all these other intangibles that go in with that.”
