Knecht ended Wednesday's 135-105 win over the Bulls with 10 points (4-6 FG, 2-4 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist and one block in 16 minutes.
Knecht provided a spark off the bench, knocking down two triples while collecting seven rebounds in limited action. The third-year wing made efficient use of his opportunities, but his 16-minute workload highlights the challenges of carving out consistent production in New York's crowded rotation. He remains a situational fantasy option unless his role expands.
RotoWire via ESPN · 1d ago
Knecht has agreed to a two-way contract with the Knicks, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.
Knecht lands in New York after being waived by the Lakers ahead of the regular season. The 25-year-old averaged 4.2 points and 1.4 rebounds across 10.2 minutes per game during the 2025-26 regular season, but the move gives him an opportunity to rebuild his value. He'll likely spend time developing in the G League and face an uphill battle for consistent NBA minutes, limiting his immediate fantasy appeal.

The Lakers waived Knecht on Monday, per Shams Charania of ESPN.
The writing appeared to be on the wall once head coach JJ Redick told reporters Monday that Knecht was excused from practice with an illness. A first-round pick just two years ago, Knecht shouldn't take long to catch on with another NBA club.

Knecht (illness) was excused from Monday's practice, per Jovan Buha of The Athletic.
Knecht is under the weather Monday. The 2024 first-rounder can be viewed as questionable for Wednesday's season opener against the Warriors, but he's not likely to be part of the rotation anyway.
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 19
Knecht recorded zero points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt) and one rebound across six minutes in Tuesday's preseason matchup against Golden State.
Knecht returned to action after previously being sidelined by a contusion, though he saw limited playing time and missed both of his shot attempts. His return was a positive development as he looks to regain his rhythm and compete for a spot in the Lakers' regular-season rotation.
RotoWire via ESPN · Oct 14
Knecht won't play in Thursday's preseason game against the Kings due to a contusion, Mike Trudell of Spectrum SportsNet reports.
Knecht is dealing with an undisclosed contusion. His next opportunity to take the floor will come in Tuesday's preseason meeting with the Warriors.
