Dalton Knecht had a scary fall take place during the Los Angeles Lakers’ contest against the Denver Nuggets on Friday night. With less than one minute remaining in the game as the Lakers led 124-123,

Milwaukee (37-28) defeated Los Angeles (40-24), 126-106, Thursday at Fiserv Forum in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Former Tennessee basketball player Dalton Knecht totaled 10 points, five rebounds and three assists in 22 minutes for the Lakers. He converted 4-of-7 field goal attempts and 2-of-4 three-point attempts.

Rather than immediately capitalizing on his second chance, Knecht struggled through late February. His playing time fluctuated, and multiple scoreless outings pushed him further to the fringes of the rotation. Meanwhile, the Lakers' acquisition of Luka Doncic reshaped the backcourt and further complicated Knecht’s path to consistent minutes.
