-Knight looked really good as the head of the snake for a Jackson Reed team that lost its starting point guard and two other starters to graduation. He pushed the pace in transition, hit shots from the perimeter off of ball screens, thrived off the ball as a C+S guy, was really pesky defensively, and showed off his finishing bag in the paint. Came away impressed by his improved shooting mechanics (especially off the bounce) as the dribble pick-up into his shooting pocket is much quicker and more efficient. Also came away impressed with his decision making with the ball in his hands and the wiggle he has as a guard that can maneuver in some tight spaces. He’s also seemingly put on muscle and is more comfortable playing through contact as shown on a beautiful bump in lay off the window to start the game and a spin move on the baseline before finger-rolling it with the left hand in the center of the paint. In an area and class that has a ton of point guard talent, Knight should really shine as the primary scorer and ballhandler for a JR team that has been the team to beat in the DCIAA for the past few years.
