Is Dalton Knecht a perfect for the Chicago Bulls? | CHGO Bulls Podcast
what’s up everyone this is Will with Cho bulls and we are going to be taking a look at some of the players the Bulls could be drafting with their 11th overall pick in the 2024 NBA draft and we’re going to start with Dalton connect from Tennessee he’s a 5-year college player who will be 23.2 years old on draft night he played his first two seasons of Joo ball before transferring to Northern Colorado and then finally to Tennessee for his last year of Eligibility where he was an All-American and the SEC player of the year uh the current mock drafts that we’ve been looking at have him in the 7 to 14 range with an average of 10.2 at his draft spot um but the 23-year-old on draft night is about 65 and a quarter with a 39 in vertical first 75 possessions he scored 30.3 points 6po rebounds and 2.6 assists per 75 possessions per game um he shot 45.8% from the field 49.9% on twos almost 40% 39.7 on threes and 77.2% from the line some of the strengths with him is he’s an elite NBA ready shooter um he’s got a great set shot with consistent mechanics very quick release and he can do it off the catch he can do it off the move uh he gets his feet set early he really gets into shots um he can come off of floppy actions pin Downs um you can set away screens for him and he really moves well and then he can also kind of Leverage that movement into some back door Cuts where you can find him for layups um he was really great at the college level attacking Closeouts uh and getting to the rim but he also can create his own shot at a pretty high level so you know maybe that doesn’t shine through right away at the in the NBA level but you know maybe attacking Closeouts and being like a secondary playmaker or even with second units creating some offense could absolutely see that but um the big thing with him is he is an NBA athlete he’s ready to play at the NBA level he’s big he’s strong he had a massive vertical um and he just plays with a lot of athleticism he’s not super quick necessarily but he’s explosive off the ground can catch lobs he can get to a shot whenever he wants um some questions about him defensively he does not move super well especially on the perimeter he can get blown by by some guards who are faster drivers um and can get kind of caught on screens at times so he will probably play a little bit more of two than three where he’s going to not necessarily have to manage those bigger wings um but how much does that cap his upside if he has to play the two um does that mean that you know he’s going to have to fight for minutes alongside Kobe white and dumu so um I think that will be a big question and then also his playmaking like he did it at a very high level when he was 23 years old in college where he’s much more physical much more strong than a lot of the players he’s playing against can he do that at the NBA level where everybody is much stronger so um you know I think he’s got a lot of creative stuff I think he can be a really good offensive player um and I think he’d kind of slot in as a shooter on the wing that can help space the floor for guys like dear rzan and Kobe white um and then create some of his own offense so I think he’d be a good fit with the bulls he kind of reminds me of like a Tim Hardway Jr maybe Grayson Allen and budon bogdanovich on the very high end um but I think he could slot right in and make an immediate impact with the Chicago Bulls Dalton connect’s going to come right in he’s going to be a shooter he’s going to contribute um and he’s going to find ways to help the offense run whether it’s him scoring or him creating space um but at 23 you know the question is about how great can he be as an offensive player can he be somebody that you really run offense through are definitely there so next time we’ll be talking about some guards here so keep it locked on the C go sports YouTube channel and chgo Bulls if you want to see more draft prospects that the Bulls could look at with the 11th overall pick in the 2024 NBA [Music] draft we all sitting like the mayor
