Knecht minimizes second chances for his opponents with 4 defensive rebounds per game and leads the Vols’ offensive charges with 21.1 points per game.
As Tennessee enters the tournament with just eight losses and the two-seed in the Midwest Region, Knecht could be a problem for the Ducks and any other team that faces him.
