- Dalton Knecht has been one of the BIGGEST breakout stars in ALL of college basketball this season, and is POISED to lead the Tennessee Volunteers to a DEEP run in March Madness…
And although his DOMINANCE has been the talk ALL season, many do NOT know the incredible RISE that the Tennessee star has had over the past few years…
From being a ZERO STAR RECRUIT out of high school and playing at a JUNIOR college, to being the SEC player of the year and future NBA draft pick, Knecht’s story has TRULY been remarkable…
Even as recently as last season, NO ONE really gave much attention to Dalton Knecht…
But he has proven how good he REALLY is this season at Tennessee.. and he’s been quieting the doubters all season long…
But even with his incredible rise in the realm of college basketball…
Will it TRANSLATE to the NBA level?
And how GOOD Is Dalton Knecht ACTUALLY? - กีฬา
What team should draft Dalton Knecht? Let us know down below
Knecht and Salaun, Spurs #4 and #8 picks
Knecht is very underrated as a defender/rebounder. He averages around 5 rebounds a game, but is capable of getting way more when needed. He's a solid player on both ends of the court, people just focus on his ability to score more
White people can’t play defense unless they’re named Caruso
He’s a terrible defender
He's a very good defender on a very great defensive team. Ziegler, Vescovi, and Maishack are hard to score against, and Knecht is probably the 5th or 6th best defender on a team that has names known for defense.
@@gavindies7271 they sub him out all the time late game situation because he’s in foul trouble and a defense liability
@@capturedbycell3162 He would be one of the top three defenders on most every other team in the country.
His performance against Auburn is one for the ages. Outscoring Auburn 21-25 by himself in the final 12 minutes. it was unreal
I don't care where he lands in the draft, but he definitely deserves NPOTY.
He 100 percent isn't getting NPOY
@@chuckd5819deserves it though
As a tennesee fan I can say we are lucky to have him
I would say Knecht is going to be like Jaime Jaquez, ready to make an instant impact to any team willing to take him🍊
I hope its miami lmao
Knecht is way better than Jaime. He’ll contribute right away, hopefully he goes to a good situation
@@jsilva7005 Jaime has better defense, and I think footwork but knecht shot is quite nice.
@juliangallo9949 Defense yes. Both have elite footwork though.
I just saw this guy for the first time playing my Boilers the other day. To say I was impressed is an understatement. That dude was EVERYWHERE.
ETA: I looked him up after the game, thinking "who the hell is this guy?" When I saw his history, I could hardly believe it. It's insane how dominant he is, coming from nowhere.
I definitely see Knecht being a good role player in the NBA, given his versatility and improvement at every level. Wish him the best!
Is Dalton Knecht the most UNDERRATED 2024 NBA draft prospect?
Let us know in the comments below👇
Good thing basketball has double team bc if that wasn't allowed you couldn't stop this guy.. Facts!!!.. I just hope he has 1 game he goes off on in the tournament... gives the whole country a chance to see what he's capable of... he's a Tennessee Treasure and a VFL
Will not speak about his scoring ability, will say that he is faster than what they think, and he has a great basketball IQ for which nobody speaks. Also, he has leader skills, and he is working very hard and that is why he is better every year, so his ceiling is not so low as people think. He is a player ready to start in NBA.
Come to the Detroit Pistons Dalton and play next to Cade.
He’s the real deal. Tennessee baby!
I feel like this guy is going to have 1 million plus subs in a few years…
Lucked out with both that extra civic season and the transfer portal. Would not have had the stage to show his potential without those factors. Amazing.
Dude, 39 percent isn't just elite. It's rare form. Kid literally shoots the blood out of the ball.
I have watched every game he has played this year and he is the real deal. He can contribute to any NBA team.
He is the most underrated player in the NBA 2024 draft. I Hope Kings can get him and I want to see what he does in the NBA.
Wishing him good luck in his career!
come on spurs, do your thing, get this guy
This rise is absolutely insane from a 0 star to a NBA lottery pick would be crazy. I swear the later your growth.Spurt comes the better big man you are. They retain all their Small ball skills. Makes them very versatile
Box state legend fr 🔥🔥🙏🏼
GET HIM TO ORLANDO PLEASE! I know he wont be around for pick 18 but he's so perfect for what we need that it's worth trading up
I think he's better than Franz.
Wonder why he was overlooked? I bet I can guess 😂.
Victim mentality, bro should of played aau
@@gymrat8164 Some people don't live around a team or can't afford to play travel ball
His age
I'm actually not sure what your "guess" is or what you're alluding to...
But he was overlooked because he was much smaller in high school and also later simply because he just wasn't as good as he is now. Junior year at Northern Colorado, he averaged 9 points per game. Then he made a huge jump his senior year, and that's when schools really took notice. I don't think there's any mystery here.
He was diagnosed as having a severe melanin deficiency which has been linked to sub optimal fast twitch fiber development.
Well he’s Elite as of last night!! 🎉🎉🎉
This Sunday will answer the question of who should be player of the year with Edey and Knecht going head to head
Welp, they both had amazing games. 😂
40% from 3 is definitely elite
with lots of cap space along with lots of drafts picks from trading (OG & SIAKIM), I thought all we need now is one good star player along with Rj Barrette ,scottie Barnes & Emanuel Quickly but wen I encounter on this guy on here ,then look him up and see where he's goin to land in the drafts picks, i was astonished😍🙌🏾-am like holy sh##t everything jus #Knecht👌🏾🤩😆💯..we looking at #TorontoRaptors next shooting🌟 Luca Don_ish type player in 2yrs time, mark my word🙏💯 -matter a fact to how this guys is grate I don't think he will go all the way to pick6 ,I think he'll draft way before
As a Tennessee fan, you give Tennessee too much credit on knowing what they had when he committed.
I disagree. When he was on his visit mashaq played him 1 on 1 and told barnes he was legit
They literally talked about how they based they’re whole offense around him this year during the offseason so I’d say they had a good idea😂
Since You don’t know anything about basketball coaching, that’s fine you think that. I can promise you Barnes fully knew.
U from East Tennessee?
Tennessee knew exactly what they were getting. Tennessee's coach has had to many top tier players during his legendary career to not know.
I don’t see how age is a problem considering young rookies in the NBA sometimes take a few years to get good
No question he is one of the very best in history of Big Orange basketball!
DK is a beast........period. Who has made a bigger impact on their team in their first year? No one. Eddy is great but look at the impact one player has made...DK is without comparison.
Is age will count against him in the draft, going in at 23 when top first round guys will be around 19-20 will hurt his stock, but I agree he is a good player, his 3 ball will help, he just needs to commit himself defensively
Spurs pick at number 8. Calling it rn
An excellent shooter, who can score quickly. You will need to pair him with a strong defender, while on the court. Perfect fit for the Sacramento Kings.
Sacramento has zero strong defenders. He’d be perfect for the Houston Rockets.
Grizzlies*
@@judith7727 Grizzlies already have Luke Kennard for that role
@@patriotpatriot1111 Luke kennard is getting traded and can’t create shots for himself
Here after him getting 24 in the sweet sixteen!!!!
His name is Dalton, but he shoots like Lucky Luke.
Go vols
Duds a real bucket, waitin for him in da nba
To me he is a legit top 10 pick.
welcome to spurs dalton knecht.
MIKE MILLER VIBES ❗️
Do Justin Edwards :)
DK is a bucket...at all levels
Dalton Knecht best fit in Memphis Grizzlies or Portland Trail Blazers
Need Cody Williams
I'm a big Knecht and TN fan. But to be completely honest, I think he dribbles the ball too loosely, especially in the open court, and gets the ball stolen too often. And sometimes he pushes too far for an ill-advised shot. It's hard to argue when it's going in, but sometimes he misses badly when forcing things.
Bro might end up being a better Alex Caruso
Can we get a dj burns video
Do reed from Kentucky or Aden Holloway from auburn
His perfoemance in the last game is concerning, same as in the sec tournament. I hope he doesnt dissepear when his team needs him most.....best player on the team...i hope he steps up
He just sealed both the Texas and Creighton games. You sound effin ridiculous. By far our most clutch player just fouls too much.
this man really chat gtpd a whole youtube video
It’s always the JC players that make the league. It seem like it goes D1-> JC -> D2 -> D3 in terms of levels of competition
Not at all. It’s just some guys in Juco are late bloomers. I had a Juco in the town next to me called Jackson State and our backup big made there team, he sucked
@@timboslice8559 Yea it definitely depends on the JC, but in my experience JC hoopers especially starters are usually a much higher level than D2/D3/NAIA
Am I the only one whoe notices that he's game and build is very similar to Bogdan Bogdanovic?
That’s a great realistic comparison
The fact he’s averaging just as many points (I think more) as he did at Northern Colorado is crazy
@4:42 Dalton goes from having clear skin to having massive skin cancer... why?
San Antonio Spurs 🎉
Knecht can score from any spot on the floor, that’s what separates him from Zach Edey, both are terrific players though.
What ever NBA team he goes on is lucky
Did Dalton pay you guys to post this? Lmao
Dude don’t have money yet lol. He’s just one of the best players in college basketball
is no one gonna talk about how he looks like stevewilldoit? evne down to the teeth lol
Hornet!
A better shooting version than RJ Barrett. Not much of a defender with poor hips and is a step slow. Good rebounder. Per 40 minutes show he can score, decent rebounder but can't give you much defensively.
He could average 20 in the league. I'd take him at #6 if im the raps.
He needs to work on attacking with his head up. He has tunnel vision pretty bad. He only averages 1 assist per game. The NBA will help him with that.
Not a fan of NCU, but Northern Colorado is D1. Get your shit together before you post.
We said NCU was D1🤣
we specified he started at a JUCO (Northeastern Junior College), then went to NCU, which we said is a lower-tier D1 school in the Big Sky Conference, and then went to Tennessee
3:00
@@HoopDungeon lol bro is such an idiot
i wish Arkansas would have done there homework and landed Knecht.
Allen Houston is not Chris Lofton....get your video right.
Knecht is ten times better than Edey. Knecht can do it all, Edey is just a very tall inside guy. Knecht will go in the high in the first round if the NBA allows it!
Repent and trust in Jesus you will be saved I love yall and God bless y'all
he is mickey af
He is pretty good..not great
He is no better than any other good player who has ever played so get off that bullshit.
sure he is hater. watch him against Purdue and see. what makes Dalton so special is he actually plays his best when the game is on the line or when it's on the cusp of slipping away. only a few guys in every sport that kind of intangible...joe burrow cones to mind in college at LSU....Laettner at Duke...Tom Brady ect... I'm not saying DK is going to be as elite as those guys but he definitely possesses that special trait. Don't just look at his stats... he's a very well rounded player in general but it's his drive and determination when the game is on the line that makes him really special.
He is a great player and story but rj Davis deserves more love
More love than Knecht? RJ is great but DK is a better player and a better NBA prospect
average at best
I was 6’3 coming out of high school too! I’m still 6’3. Whatya know?
Anybody I knew who shot up from 5’8 to 6’6 was on a little prescription called “HGH” that their parents took them to a doctor for.
