“just like a three-level score. I think I just go out there and can impact the game at all three levels... I just want to show on the other side of the ball, getting into the ball pressure and stuff like that, and going in and grabbing defensive rebounds.”

“he played great I think the way he was rebounding getting out of transition just telling him to be aggressive no matter what the situation is... I said aggressive mistakes are fine so just stay aggressive”

Knecht gave a nice offensive lift in the first half but has defensive details to clean up.
