I love Knell this year so far, but he’s also 26 years old.

Not sure he will get drafted, but he will get a run in Summer League for sure.

You still shouldn't be saying (or thinking that). Given Knell's skillset & athleticism he'd need to be 6'10+

All the naysayers may be right. But they are wrong on a few things

"Low risk" wouldn't be a guy who probably couldn't even get a clean shot off in the NBA.
