Knueppel’s scouting report

Kon Knueppel is a strong-framed wing who is incredibly efficient on the offensive end. He sees the game well, both on and off the ball. Knueppel is an excellent passer, with vision in transition or in the half-court. He cuts with purpose off the ball, often finding open looks for himself and/or his teammates. He is a smooth shooter with deep range, and his mechanics stay consistent both off the catch and the bounce. Knueppel is a good team defender, while his lateral quickness may be one of the few questions in his game. He has sneaky bounce at the rim and can put down a dunk in traffic. Shot 52% FG, 43% 3P, and 80% FT in 21 EYBL games this summer.
