What would you do if Jazz draft Kon Knoepple at #5?

Useless trivia but Kon's dad is also named Kon. His brother's names are Kager, Kinston, Kash and Kid.

Can any of his brothers play ball?

Can any of his brothers play ball?

yes. the next oldest is a top HS prospect. his parents are both the all time leading scorers at their respective colleges so my guess is they can all play.

just because he doesn't have mobility doesn't mean he can't. you get good at what you work on, and after an off season of mobility training, he could probably become serviceable as a cutter, add that to the rest and he'd be pretty good. If joe could be traded with a bad knee to a team that actually wanted to play him, than kon can be a contributor. i think a lot of us are stuck on having the number one pick still, at five you are lucky to get a starter for a playoff team.

I don't hate Don, but there are 6 or 7 players I would prefer this year

His uncles are also Klint, Klay, and Kole. I know we like white players here in Utah, but this may be the whitest player in America.

Are you aware that Kyle Korver's brothers are called Klayton, Kaleb and Kirk? And that his dad is Kevin, he has an uncle called Kris and a cousin called Kari. His kids are Kyra, Knox and Koen.

This is one of my favorite weird facts. Are the Knoeppels a copycat family?

Latest ESPN mock has him going to Charlotte at 4 so we may have no decision on KK.

I wouldn't pick him over Tre Johnson... but I think he has a very high floor and more upside than most think. He does everything the right way- and has a no-nonsense, gritty quality that reminds me of John Stockton (in terms of demeanor and bb IQ).

fun fact: his offensive rating is 133.7 and defensive rating is 98.8. That is a CRAZY differential between the two... as high as I have seen. So there may be more to him than meets the eye?
