1. “too old”

2. that’s my fucking rookie

3. Sorry Austin Reaves, new favorite Lakers white guy just dropped

4. Lakers keep a cold ass white boy at all times

5. this dude went #17 because he’s a couple years older, unbelievable

6. He’s gonna be so good under JJ’s system as JJ is also a great shooter!

7. I’m gonna enjoy how annoyed everyone’s going to eventually be that we drafted him lol

8. Such a steal

9. That man is strictly 3 & D (Dunk)

10. He’s an absolute stud. Lakers got a steal at 17.

11. How the fuck did they let us get Knecht and let the Sixers get McCain

12. Shouldn’t have let us have TWO cold white boys, like a stark should be in winterfell. A cold white boy must be in LA

13. Bro just won me $600 I’ll love you forever Dalton

14. That’s what happen when you let the Lakers take an older skilled white men 

15. At least spell the man’s name right!

16. It’s funny because he fell in the draft for being 23 but wouldn’t you rather have a more mature locker room and have a mature rookie in some cases?

17. Wasn’t sure when I saw him starting at first but the man’s definitely earned his spot over D’Lo at the moment

18. Knecht

    K N E C H T

19. thats my ROY

20. Is he gonna keep the minutes once Rui comes back is the question?

21. Cracks me up every draft when teams before the Lakers and the Heat usually take some player that never pans out, and then the Lakers and the Heat consistently get steals at their spots. It’s like a broken record every year, “I can’t believe *(insert Lakers or Heat)* were able to get (insert player here) with this pick! What a steal!”

22. Just 3 days ago people were making fun of Knecht in a rookie ladder. THANK YOU!

23. How do you butcher the man’s name that badly lol

24. Gotta love how quiet Lakers post game threads are right now. Where’s everyone from last week?

25. He’s a Saudi Prince’s Tyler Herro.

26. Rookie playing grown men minutes making grown men plays out there. A walking bucket.

27. Knetch was cooking in the ncaa tourney especially on high ranked seeded teams. He was born ready for the nba.

28. You’re just spelling his name any which way ya please, huh?

29. Wait, teams actually play their rookies?? Does Chris Finch know this???

30. Knecth ith gonna be tho good

31. This kid is our 3rd best player already lol

32. LeBron and good white guards go hand and hand

33. Okay but I hear that dude Dalton Knehct is really going off

34. You done typed his name out how Mike Tyson would say it

35. Dude looked like a prime JJ redick out there

36. But Reddit told me JJ was going to be the worst coach in the league 

37. That’s not Bronny

38. Dalton Knecht is The Old Man and the Three

39. I wonder if the Bulls got this guy instead of Matas 🤔

40. ROY incoming

41. I’m so glad the older player stigma is dying out. Instant contribution is never bad

42. I guess he wasn’t too old at 23

43. OP going 0/2 on spelling a player’s name while literally at the boxscore, smh

44. “Knetch” and “Knecth” lol…

45. I expected his best case scenario to be what Jaime Jaquez was for Miami last season and so far so good. Glad we went for the best player available instead or a raw prospect.
