SCOUTING TIMELINE: A history of what scouts have said about Kevin Knox

Scout	What/When	Analysis

Anonymous Eastern Conference Scout	April, 2017: Discussing the 2017 class	"I think a lot of the bigger wings like Kevin Knox and Jarred Vanderbilt may be more natural as fours or combo forwards but that fits fine because the versatile guys who can be moved around are the way I think we are moving."
Eric Bossi	April, 2017: Jordan Brand Classic	"Knox had the jump shot rolling on Thursday. He loves to fade away into either corner for the three and it's a difficult shot that he makes look really easy. He also mixed in drives and was very active on the glass."
Eric Bossi	March 30: McDonald's Week	"He's getting more and more reliable as a deep jump shooter, rebounded well all week and fits the mold of the hybrid combo forward that is so successful in today's game."
Eric Bossi	March 27: McDonald's practice standouts	"Knox looks to have taken his game to a new level. As a hybrid who can play as a big wing or as a mobile, floor spacing, four man, he really fits the direction basketball is headed. He's added some strength and was burying lots of rainbow jumpers from deep."
Eric Bossi	October 10, 2016: Top USA Basketball performers	"The No. 8 ranked player in the class of 2017, Kevin Knox had a good weekend attacking in transition and playing as a hybrid forward."
Krysten Peek	June 12, 2016: USA Basketball	"Knox ran the floor well and won some rebounding battles with the bigs down low. After a slow start Friday night, Knox has turned it around and has done everything to almost solidify a spot on the team."
Dan McDonald	May 31, 2016: EYBL Atlanta	"Five-star small forward Kevin Knox had an impressive morning in a win over Seattle Rotary on Monday morning. There aren’t many prospects that are more physically imposing on the wing than Knox, and that makes him tough to contain when he goes to the basket. Knox threw down several highlight reel dunks in the 85-79 win."
Clint Jackson	October 14, 2015: 2017 Intro	"The junior really embraced the role of being an aggressive, relentless competitor at the recent USA Developmental Camp in Colorado Springs.When Knox was on the floor, he attacked the basket on the break, he played physical inside, he defended the best players on the opposing team and he showed the versatility to play on the wing or in the paint."
Eric Bossi	October 9, 2015: USA Basketball, top wings	"The transformation from combo forward to full-time wing looks to be complete for Knox. At 6-foot-7, he has good size and he's a high-end athlete with a high running motor. He was a beast in transition and on the glass and could develop into an elite defender. Not saying he will be as good, but plays similar to a young Shawn Marion."
Eric Bossi	October 8, 2015	"One of the most rapidly improving players in the class of 2017 is five-star swingman Kevin Knox.That's right, despite already being ranked the No. 16 player in his class, the 6-foot-7 small forward from Tampa (Fla.) Catholic still has a huge ceiling for improvement.At last weekend's USA Basketball minicamp his upside and improving game were readily apparent. He ran the floor for dunks, competed on the glass and showed off a much more well rounded perimeter game."
Russ Wood	September 14, 2015: E1T1	"Tampa Catholic's five-star junior forward Kevin Knox ranks No. 16 overall nationally in the class of 2017 and he showed why. Knox showed off his three-point range with a couple of makes off the catch and made a nice baseline turnaround jump shot. The 6-foot-7, 195-pounder is a long and lanky athlete who crashed the boards at both ends of the floor, made good passes and was active on defense."
Eric Bossi	July 25, 2015: Fab48	"The 2017 forward has been a different player since playingfor USA Basketball's 16U team. While he showed flashes of bigtime ability in theNike EYBL during the spring, he's really taken his game to a new level in July.He's active, quick, can shoot with pretty good range and he is getting bettereach time out."
Eric Bossi	June 5, 2015	"Earlier this week the 6-foot-7 forward from Tampa (Fla.) Catholic made USA Basketball's 16U team and before that he was crushing it on the travel circuit with Each 1 Teach 1 in Nike's Elite Youth Basketball League.A bouncy and versatile player who can score inside and make jumpers, Knox is a lock to make the 2017 rankings when they get updated at the end of the month."
Eric Bossi	May 29, 2015: USA Basketball U16 team trials	"Headed into the spring, Tampa (Fla.) Catholic forward Kevin Knox was a relatively unknown player in the class of 2017. Playing in Nike's Elite Youth Basketball League with Each 1 Teach 1 he began to carve out an identity as an active combo forward. Through two sessions of the 16U team trials, Knox has only built upon the body of work he compiled over the past few months. A quarterback on the football field, Knox -- a 6-foot-7 195 pounder -- lacks nothing when it comes to toughness. He has been crashing the glass on both ends of the floor, playing good defense and showing explosion when attacking the rim. He can make medium to deep jumpers and has a very nicely balanced game."
