good read. mitch can very easily be the steal of the draft, if he gets minutes during the season. likewise some of the hype for knox should be tempered just a bit. his shooting was quite poor and we shouldn't expect him to get to the line as much as he did in sl.
Knox shot 17-of-49 non-threes. That's not good. But he's super young and ridiculously athletic, I'm sure that will work itself out.
Also, seems like no one is figuring the fact that Knox only played half his games/minutes WITH possible PG starter, Frank - and that must have negatively affected his output to a certain extent.
Recommend reading the whole thing, but here's the TL;DR on Robinson:
Here's TL;DR on Knox:
Dude...
Utterly ridiculous
For real.... That's ALL effort.
What will it take for this kid to keep that motor running all yr?
THIS -WHILE also likely breaking the record for most JUMP shots blocked...
