One of the most dynamic finishers, comfortable with either hand, Knight put on a clinic on Thursday. Sporting an explosive first step, Knight easily blew by defenders getting to the rim where he was automatic with a variety of spin moves and circus finishes. A nightmare leading the fastbreak, Knight was routinely out ahead of the pack for easy layups putting his team on his back for a close win over Team Herro National.

Knight’s toughness in the backcourt laid the foundation for what made the Illinois Warriors Elite 17u squad so successful throughout the weekend. Despite playing up a year, this 5’10” guard from MacArthur High School in Illinois had no issue keeping up athletically and did a great job of playing through contact as a finisher at the end of his drives. He was a relentless driver, creative scorer, and consistently involved in the rebounding effort. His tenacity really stood out.
