Knight's work out video with Kings

Can finish but dunno if he's a leaper like Westbrook..

I still don't like his jumper...

Obviously I'm not an expert in it, it's just the release seems a bit rush and as Locke has said, he seems to bring the ball low and come up with it which I don't think helps with accuracy. Also it seems to be block prone to me..

Dunno, what do you guys think?

His shot is a little different but the fact that he releases above his head would mean he wouldn't get blocked a ton. Honestly he is 6 4 and a point guard. Not that many point guards are great blockers anyways. This kid looks really good and explosive. It rather have him than overload the frontcourt with Kanter.
 
Damn did Bobby Jackson get eaten by some alien and wear his skins in disgust? He is FAT.

Knight seems very good shooting off the dribble.

I am still hoping Irving falls to us though.
 
I think he'd be a great pickup. He's a great shooter. I can easily see him fitting on the Jazz. It's just a matter of deciding how we'd best use him? Also, is someone else more valuable to the team at the #3 pick? If the Jazz do want him, I still think we could do a trade and pick up another asset or two to move down and get him there.
 
he is like a more athletic andre miller

more like a young Devin Harris. Size, speed, some athleticism, a good shooter - but not a great one.

If you look at DraftExpress their pre-draft measurements are almost exact same.

Because, of course, similar measurements mean they play the exact same way, right?

Ok, I can see there's no fooling you.. so here's a quote from BTS instead:

This keeps coming up with Jazz's No. 3, 12 picks: Utah can find another PG or SG at 12 if Jazz pass on Walker, Knight. But there's not another Kanter on the board, in terms of his size, shooting skill, youth and potential. O'Connor is big on length, size and interior depth. Easier to get a SG via trade/signing than drafting a "special" young center at No. 3.

Take from it what you may...
 
I can't believe anyone thinks this video is worth anything. Like watching a racehorse trot and projecting how fast it will run.

I mean, if you want to make the argument that Kanter will be better than Knight, that's one thing, but arguing to not draft Knight because he has similar measurements to Devin Harris is quite another.

It's like twins taking different paths later in life.. of course they can develop differently..

Would I take him? Yes. At #3? No.
