FAYETTEVILLE — Dalton Knecht, Bronny James and former Arkansas Razorback Adou Thiero form the Los Angeles Lakers’ last three NBA Draft picks as of Thursday night when the draft concluded at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn.
“I’m ready to go in and do whatever,” Thiero said on the Spectrum SportsNet broadcast Thursday after he was drafted. “Do whatever I gotta do to see the floor, help the team, just doing whatever Coach JJ [Redick needs] me to do.”
Knecht was the 17th overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft and produced the second-best three-point percentage among qualified rookies last season.
