Zach Edey vs. Dalton Knecht Epic Duel in Elite Eight | 2024 March Madness 

I don't know man. Edey is straight up massive. He's going to be a hell of a pro.

Knect Baylor 2.0

​@@justaguy328if this was 20 years ago I'd agree but in today's league he needs to have a perimeter game in order to seriously impact scoring. He can be an amazing defensive anchor though.

He scored in the top 5 on quickness skill drills. And hitting midlevel jumpers in the NBA combine. 3 pointers too.

Except Edey plays more like Shaq.

240lbs and 6' 9" against a 300lb 7' 4"... we'll see. The backup to Edey is 7' 2" 255 lol I hope its a close game with a buzzer winner!

Wdym. He did this all year long. Scored over 35 like 8 times

Should be a fun game. NC looked good against Duke, but I will be rooting for my boilers to take it to the finals.

Not when Burns is in foul trouble for breathing on Edey too hard. Refs give him everything.

​@@trav3104edey literally gets hacked every time he gets the ball...too be fair you cant guard him without fouling so i can see why so many people with low basketball IQ think that way

@trav3104 Saying Refs give Edey everything just showed how little you watch him play. He gets fouled nearly every possession. In the Gonzaga game, he had one guy holding his left arm, another guy holding his right arm so he couldn't get the rebound. They reviewed the play and still didn't call it a foul. The number of hook and hold calls missed is insane.

We had our hands full with 2 seed Tennessee, we should not have much trouble with an 11 seed. We will wear N.C. State down and foul trouble will also ensue, just like all the other teams we play against. Except for our four losses, which area a lot fewer than the 14 losses of N.C.S. But you never know for sure. UCONN is scary if we get past N.C.S.!!

Wemby smoking this dude

@@KadeForeverwhy can’t you just appreciate young talent? Bum ass hater

Bro WEMBY will break his ankles and shoot from half court

Wemby💥 That's easy work

He can’t run with Wemby. He gonna cook Ayton though

That was a foul 💥

Lmao not hardly had three guys on him and Edey had the follow up…

Boban NEVER had the fluidity or kneebend that Edey has. The problem with super bigs is usually they don't have the ability to sit in a defensive position and receive contact from a driver, Edey has great kneebend and can lower his stance BECAUSE he has used those aspects in his Offensive game when he is posting up the paint. That's why he's way superior to a tako fall or Boban, because his game isn't about being tall only, he's actually really good at Battling for position and that is what makes him a NBA prospect

Yes, he rarely fouls. He only averted 1.9 fouls this season

Uhh yes without fouling too

@@evandonahue5456depends on who he is guarding if it’s an nba center he is going to get destroyed trying to defend one of those guys

yeah

I see both of these guys having good pro careers. If edey gets a little stronger he will be hard to deal with down there has soft touch 2

Problem is he is so hard to stop... foul him out of the game is your best chance if you ask me... the rest of his team is just mid.

@@Eric_W he is wasting they actually call the 3 seconds in the key..

Yeah a 40pt 20reb game is boring vs. shooting 30 times from 3 and shooting a terrible percentage is somehow more entertaining. Millennials and their twisted view of things.

@@The1stHubStyle Knecht will be drafted higher due to him being a far better player.

@boosted9319 He's skilled, that doesn't mean that he's "way better." Their careers haven't begun.

Creighton did and by a lot!

@@edalbanese6310Not recently. They have not lost since January

Purdue was up 80-62 in the closing minutes. Gonzaga scored the last 6 points.

taller zubac

@@NAMISIMP i disagree, Zubac is highly skilled and has good feet, this dude is stiff and uncoordinated

@@B-Free619you the only one who admits it bro props to you. he is slow and cannot move with the ball whatsoever

His game won't translate much. Imagine him trying to guard curry off of a screen. I think clingan has a much higher chance of having success in the NBA.

Knect is more skilled and will be the better pro. Edey way too stiff for the pros and gets very favorable treatment from refs in college....that won't be the case in the NBA...plenty of good big guus there.

Knecht will be playing in the NBA while edey will be playing in the g-league or overseas in a few years.

Then why isn’t every 7 footer running the league, give your head a shake
