Charlotte Hornets sharpshooter Kon Knueppel has enjoyed being alongside former college/fellow rookie teammate Sion James in the NBA (averaging 9.1 PPG/2.9 RPG/1.4 APG/0.6 SPG/0.3 BPG/0.4 TOV/1.3 PF/66.7% FG/60.0% 2-PT/72.2% 3-PT/100% FT/23.3 MPG/+4.3 +/- through seven games).
(via Charlotte Hornets):
“Sion’s a great teammate. Obviously, he has the physical advantages. He’s a beast, super strong. But he’s just such a smart player and it’s easy to play with him. He doesn’t make mistakes on defense. He’s always making quick decisions on the offensive end. And right now, he’s shooting like 100% from three. So if you can do those things, you can play in this league for a long time.”
