Knight is a big left-handed guard who brings a football player’s toughness to the basketball court. A dynamic athlete, he blends speed and strength to get downhill, holding his line and absorbing contact on drives. He has begun to add consistency to his outside shot, giving him another layer to his offensive game. Defensively, his physicality and competitive edge make him a tough assignment for opposing guards. Already holding multiple D-I football offers as a wide receiver, Knight’s athletic profile and toughness translate seamlessly to basketball, making him an intriguing two-sport standout.

I like the big lefty guard. Coming off the gridiron, Knight brings a physical presence with a finesse game. He sank a pair of threes and was active getting to the line, shooting 4-6 as he finished with 12 points, 7 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 steals. MJ usually plays off the ball. When outside shots are falling, it opens up driving lanes once defenders step out.

Big guard plays football and brings that dynamic athleticism to the hardwood. Strong scorer when going to the cup. Shoots the ball well enough from the perimeter to keep defenses honest. Has the length and strength to guard multiple positions.

Knight is a good-looking athlete with a football background. On the hardwood, MJ is a big guard packed with physical strength. He gets to his spots when getting downhill and is a solid shooter from the mid-range. Knight made an impact in Year 1 with his versatile defense and willingness to crash the boards.
