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.

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?
 
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?
 
I mean, I wouldn't Knuepple if Jazz traded down to 7 or 8, and added more 1st rd pick for this year or the next. It's just #5 seems somewhat high to draft him at.

I'd even do Knuepple at 6 for 5 and 18.

Probably not since he played with 2 huge defensive anchors
 
I compared Kon to a guy from Boise State who will not be drafted. The BSU guy averaged four more points per game, out rebounded him and had a better field goal percentage. I get the BSU guy is older but geeze louise.
