US media revealed: If the Lakers send Kneckett away in the offseason, the Nuggets will get him

On June 1, US media revealed: NBA Nuggets management is very interested in Lakers' young defender Knector, and believes that his partner with Jokic will be very ideal. As long as the Lakers want to trade Knector in the offseason, the Nuggets will try every means to get involved in this deal to win him.

24-year-old Knector plays as a shooting guard and plays for the Lakers in the 2024-2025 season. He plays in a total of 78 games in the regular season, averages 19.1 minutes per game, and can score 9.1 points + 2.8 rebounds + 0.8 assists + 0.3 steals + 0.1 blocks. He has a shooting percentage of 46.0%, three-point shooting percentage of 37.0%, and free throw shooting percentage of 76.0%.

Kneckett is 1.98 meters tall. As a league defender, he belongs to the tall series and has a stable three-pointer. The Nuggets management believes that once he and Jokic form an internal and external partner, they will become the team's new offensive weapon. And Johnett will get more trust and playing time in the Nuggets. With Jokic's support, Johnett has far more potential than he performed with the Lakers!
