Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Nets 27 points with six triples
Knueppel totaled 27 points (9-14 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 3-3 FT), two rebounds and four assists over 34 minutes during Friday's 128-120 loss to the Heat.
Knueppel was quiet through the first half of Friday's game, but he caught fire after halftime and scored 19 of his 27 points on 6-for-10 shooting in the second half. This was the rookie's eighth game of the season with at least six treys, and it was nice to see him dish out some dimes after failing to do so in his previous outing.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Another strong line
Knueppel closed Wednesday's 118-89 victory over Boston with 20 points (7-14 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 2-3 FT), four rebounds and one block in 31 minutes.
Knueppel continues to make a strong case for the Rookie of the Year Award. The Hornets are surging and will like their chances of securing a spot in the postseason. Over his last eight games, Knueppel has averaged 21.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 4.1 three-pointers in 30.2 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Drills eight treys
Knueppel ended with 28 points (10-17 FG, 8-12 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists, one block and one steal over 31 minutes during Thursday's 133-109 win over the Pacers.
Knueppel put on a shooting display Thursday evening and tied the best mark of his young NBA career by knocking down eight threes, which is something he also accomplished Jan. 29 against Dallas. Following this impressive performance from deep, the Duke product now holds the NBA record for most made threes in a season by a rookie with 207. Knueppel has put up 20-plus points in four straight games and has shown no sign of slowing down.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Becomes 1st to 200 threes
Knueppel finished Tuesday's 131-99 win over the Bulls with 21 points (7-12 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), one rebound, two assists and two steals over 23 minutes.
Knueppel's remarkable rookie campaign continues as the 2025 No. 4 overall pick became the first player to reach 200 made threes this season. He was very efficient from the field on his way to 21 points in only 23 minutes. He's averaging 27.3 points per game over his last three. Knueppel has now made more than one triple in nine consecutive games, recording at least one steal in five straight as well.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Pours in 28 points
Knueppel produced 28 points (10-18 FG, 5-9 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one steal in 28 minutes during Sunday's 129-112 victory over Washington.
Knueppel stayed red-hot from beyond the arc Sunday against the Wizards, knocking down five of nine three-point attempts and maintaining his league lead with 198 made threes this season. The No. 4 overall pick also tied Stephen Curry for the most games by a rookie with at least 25 points and five threes, reaching nine such games and continuing what has been a remarkable debut campaign. Over his last 10 games, the 20-year-old forward is averaging 22.5 points, 6.0 rebounds, 4.5 threes, 3.2 assists and 0.7 steals across 33.5 minutes per contest.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Drains seven triples in loss
Knueppel logged 33 points (11-20 FG, 7-15 3Pt, 4-5 FT), six rebounds, two assists and one steal over 37 minutes during the Hornets' 118-113 loss to the Cavaliers on Friday.
The No. 4 overall pick paced the Hornets on offense during Friday's loss, tallying 27 of his game-high 33 points between the second and third quarters. It was the third time this season that Knueppel connected on seven triples in a game, and he was one shy from tying a career high that he set against the Mavericks on Jan. 29. He should operate in an elevated role against the Wizards on Sunday, as that will be the last game Miles Bridges will be forced to miss while serving a four-game suspension.

Hornets' Kon Knueppel: Notches 15 points in loss
Knueppel closed with 15 points (5-11 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal over 31 minutes during Thursday's 105-101 loss to the Rockets.
This was a quiet game by Knueppel's standards, and that goes to show how impressive he's been during his rookie season. Through 55 games, he's on pace to return fifth-round value in nine-category formats with 18.8 points, 5.5 rebounds, 3.6 assists, 0.7 steals and 3.4 three-pointers.

Knueppel registered 18 points (5-12 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists, one block and two steals over 30 minutes during Wednesday's 110-107 victory over the Hawks.
The Hornets are one of the hottest teams in the league, winning 10 of their last 11 games. Knueppel has been a key reason for that, posting averages of 18.2 points, 5.9 rebounds, 3.7 assists and 3.5 three-pointers on 48.5 percent shooting in that span.

Knueppel racked up 20 points (6-13 FG, 5-11 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one block over 34 minutes during Monday's 110-104 loss to Detroit.
Knueppel's shooting touch was on full display Monday, as the rookie knocked down a game-high five three-pointers, matching Detroit's entire team total from beyond the arc. He's now reached the 20-point mark in three straight contests and has hit five-plus threes in 15 games this season. Selected No. 4 overall in the 2025 NBA Draft, Knueppel has handled the expectations well and continues to back up the hype with high-level production.
