Knueppel Leads Rookies with Historic Shooting & Scoring Start

Kon Knueppel is ranked the No. 1 rookie, making NBA history as the first player with 50 3-pointers in his first 15 career games. The Hornets rookie has also scored 20+ points in at least 10 of his first 20 games. His shot-making creates opportunities for drives, and his confidence is growing as he initiates contact and effectively works off screens, battling as a screener to slip into space.
