Well our whole coaching situation is in complete limbo right now so no telling what brother Man is coaching this has been able to do ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Way too early thoughts on Dalton is that he will have issues finishing around the rim at the NBA level because he seems to lack athletic advantages. You can see right away he’s not getting the open and quick releases that we saw in college highlights.
He will need to work for his shots, we will need to set him up well with screens. I don’t see a player with a lot of speed or length advantages at the NBA level.
He can probably become a quality player if he develops a quick release 3, fake and drive to mid range J (instead of all the way to the basket) and in post up mismatches copy his idol KD. That’s how he can get to a high level in the league IMO. Speed/athleticism are not elite or even high vs NBA level athletes. |

| Knecht has the size to handle nba physicality already. He will be able to get to where he needs to go on the court |

| Hinson might be the worst player I've seen defending screens, he's literally hugging and pushing the screener each time he's getting screened on defense. |

| #37 is looking good navigating as a pick n roll defender and active in the paint on offense. |

He actually has good speed, length, and great leaping ability. We will see if it translates. He seems pretty fluid out there

Big fan of traore already
One of the things I noted about knecht was he gets pushed off his axis too easily. It’s fixable but he needs to get stronger in the legs to anchor himself more

All professional athletes deal with this.
