After a tough defeat against the Warriors, the Lakers bounced back with a solid 124-108 win over the Pelicans. Key contributions came from stars Luka Dončić, Austin Reaves, and LeBron James. Rookie Dalton Knecht emerged as a valuable asset, scoring ten points quickly and showcasing his offensive abilities. Coach JJ Redick expressed confidence in Knecht's potential to impact playoff games due to his shooting skills. Knecht's performance, particularly his size and playmaking on the court, reflects a strong fit within the Lakers' strategy to optimize their rotation ahead of the playoffs, underscoring his promising future in the league.
We haven't given up on Dalton. We feel like he's a guy that can help us win a game in the playoffs. Maybe multiple games because of his shooting and his ability to score.
Standing at 6'6, Knecht brings impressive size and athleticism off the Lakers' bench. On his tip-in basket, Knecht crashes in from behind the 3-point line.
