Luka Dončić Shines Against Great Britain, Dalton Knecht Falls in 2024 "Re-Draft"

Everyone can exhale. After last weekend's injury scare for Luka Donćić, he was indeed back in action on Tuesday in Slovenia's Eurobasket prep exhibition against Great Britain. Just being healthy enough to play was encouraging (yes, it was reported that he was fine, but people want to see the evidence) but it was even better to see Luka dominate. In just over 28 minutes of play, he had 28 points (7-17 shooting, dragged down by a 2-11 mark from 3-point range, but boosted by 14 trips to the FT line), along with six rebounds and 10 assists. So once again, things are looking good, and it's a lot easier to once again focus on the potential for a huge year from Luka. The Lakers are also still holding out for big things from Dalton Knecht, even if others are more skeptical. To that point, The Athletic did a re-draft of the 2024 class, and Knecht, who was seen as a steal last summer but took some knocks as the year went along, following it all up with a less-than-stellar Summer League run. Knecht wasn't even in the top 20 of the re-draft, even in a class that wasn't considered that strong. So is it fair? Even if it's fair, does it "mean" anything? What can the Lakers reasonably expect from Knecht this year and going forward? What is the best case scenario?  HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: Luka looks good against Great Britain.  SEGMENT 2: Knecht falls in the re-draft...  SEGMENT 3: Big questions around the rotation?  Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!Monarch MoneyTake control of your finances with Monarch Money.
