With the fourth overall pick on Wednesday, the Charlotte Hornets selected Kon Knueppel from Duke in the 2025 NBA draft at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Knueppel was a second-team All-ACC selection after averaging 14.4 points, four rebounds, 2.7 assists and one steal in 39 games on 40.6% shooting from 3-point range. He scored in double figures in all but seven games, including a season-high 28 points and eight assists on March 13.
The 6-foot-6 guard was once viewed as a potential lottery pick, but climbed boards throughout the predraft process to become a top-five selection.
