Jake LaRavia is going to take all of Dalton Knecht’s minutes.He is going to be a better version of Knecht who can play solid defense for us.This makes Knecht even more expendable than he already is.— 🎗NBA•Fan🎗 (@Klutch_23) July 30, 2025
Jamie…I agree, I saw that when i watched his highlights after the signing….never heard of him before, but I like what i saw in the highlights….I think their age isnt that far off, but Laravia has a few years more of NBA experience….just saw they had an incident last year where Laravia elbowed Knecht in the face on his first start….shouldnt be a problem….unless……I would like Knecht to do consistently what he showed last season and improve on defense….look Duncan Robinson was never a defender at any point in his career and he’s hung around the league….I’m still concerned with the presence of Vanderbilt….and his zero input on offense….and erratic defense….
While true, at this point it’s relegated Knecht to throw-in expiring salary.
