2024 NBA Draft Shooters: Dalton Knecht, Reed Sheppard and Jared McCain

[@demond2134]

Knecht is the best player in the draft..He can flat out ball

[@VanIyke]

Was waiting for this. Thanks.

now you can clean ur uw

[@veeks1884]

I truly believe Jared McCain is the best shooter in this draft and think it would be a huge mistake if he returned to school

[@the_realmkc4452]

wrong as usual

[@_0tt0matic]

From the beginning of the season till January I’d agree about McCain going back to school but he’s turned up since February. He’s solidified his place in the first round as of right now.

hornets need reed badly at 2 guard w brandon their D and shooting would be great together - hornets are picking 1-5 so reed is likely in play but your analysis is fair on reed. im hoping matas for the hornets too

hornets will always suck

[@dellblackman4565]

Do you think that Knecht could be a more athletic version of a Kyle Korver type?

[@Don-md6wn]

I don't see the comparison. Korver was a better shooter but he was just a spot up shooter. Knecht is far more athletic and can score from anywhere on the floor.

bad comp

[@norrinradd542]

It will be interesting to see how Sheppard translates.

[@the_realmkc4452]

lost in translation

[@thehighvibe5528]

you cant deny edey's production, footwork, size, and watch the game against duke last year w lively and filipowski against edey... edey dominated them both together. just facts -- had a 10 point lead the whole game w 21 12 w blocks and assists. zachs passing to the wing is what makes him an nba threat yo start and also dominate.

[@Don-md6wn]

Zach is going to get torched in the NBA as every team puts him into pick and roll defense. That's why he went back to college after being national player of the year. Think Jahlil Okafor.

[@thehighvibe5528]

@@Don-md6wn zach torched lively who would be redrafted top 6 and filipowski who is projected lottery together as in one against two. okafor never had footwork and power like zach...

[@scottwickett1273]

@@thehighvibe5528 That's because these are two completely different sports at this point. And, Okafor definitely had good footwork, it's just that he wasn't quite as big as Edey and more importantly post play is a stupid thing to even want these days.

[@ramtruth3]

Leif will fail on his views on the #3 pick Reed Sheppard, Richard started off with how high of an IQ he has and then Leif destroyed it lol. Reed is legit. Reed has traits of Stockton/Mark Prince/ Stockton/CP3/Curry.

[@robitaillecopeland1996]

McCain and Knecht will likely get major minutes in the NBA. Sheppard is too small and likely headed for a Payton Pritchard type role

[@scottwickett1273]

Pritchard was never a 5+ STL% guy.

[@koga477]

McCain and Sheppard are the exact same height. Comparable shooters but Sheppard is a better defender. So why exactly is Sheppard "too small" if McCain isn't?

[@boosted9319]

Agree shepperd is to small dk is a much better prospect by far.

[@scottwickett1273]

@@boosted9319 Nah, if anything you can argue that there's a strong case either way; they should probably be really close together on peoples' boards by the end of this cycle.

[@boosted9319]

@@scottwickett1273 knecht had doubled ppg and season average. Knecht can dribble drive and dunk it down your throat, shoot 3s, shoot elite 15 ft shot dk is so much more athletic and bigger.
