Kon Knueppel: My anticipation defensively can be better

Charlotte Hornets rookie Kon Knueppel discussed where he’s at on the defensive end following Thursday’s 114-103 home win vs. the New York Knicks.

(via Charlotte Hornets):

“I’m not super disruptive. I think that’s something I can work on as we go into next season: just getting better with my anticipation on the defensive end. But I do a good job of staying in between my guy and the basket for the most part and using my chest. That makes it hard for anybody to hit a shot. I think [Jalen] Brunson hit a couple of tough ones over me, and sometimes you just gotta tip your hat. But you try to make it as tough as you can, and just stay in between them and the basket.”
