Knox’s production ebbed and flowed all season, but he should be firmly inside the top-20 come draft night. He’s still raw compared to most of his freshmen counterparts, but he has the tools needed to become a reliable scoring threat at either forward spot.

Shooting will be key in Knox’s development. He was around a 35 percent shooter from deep last season, but that came in several inconsistent bursts. He’s already an excellent cutter, using his length to finish around the rim and get off shots from mid-range.

At 6-9, Knox is also a versatile body on the defensive end. Milwaukee already has plenty of length in their rotation, so Knox should be a welcomed addition. He’s easily the best prospect left at this point.
