With the draft less than a week away, stories have started to surface regarding a fall for Ace Bailey. With that, VJ Edgecombe is getting tied to the 76ers, while the Charlotte Hornets end up with Kon Knueppel.
Knueppel is a different kind of prospect than a lot of his peers. He’s not a plus athlete, but he’s an elite shooter. However, his reputation as an elite shooter seems to be overshadowing the all around game that he has.
