有湖人記者專門出了一篇講他問題的文章，裡面有提到他的交易價值

If he’s going to matter, either as a Laker or as a valuable trade asset, Dalt
on Knecht is going to have to figure some things out

Having already been traded once, Knecht’s availability wasn’t considered a r
eal secret in Las Vegas during summer league. The Lakers desperately need a pl
ayer whom teams desire close to as much as they desired the team’s lone trada
ble first-round pick.
But scouts and executives, almost unanimously, felt that the Lakers wouldn’t
be able to recoup comparable value to the No. 17 pick they used when they sele
cted Knecht. Some felt the team might be able to get its hands on multiple sec
ond-round picks, while the most critical felt Knecht would return just a lone
second.
Knecht 已經被交易過一次，因此在夏季聯賽期間，他可能被交易在拉斯維加斯並不算什
麼秘密。湖人迫切需要一名能像他們僅有的那枚可交易首輪籤一樣受其他球隊青睞的球員
。
然而，各隊球探與高層幾乎一致認為，湖人無法換回與他們當初用第17順位選中 Knecht
相當的價值。有些人認為湖人或許還能換到多個次輪籤，但最嚴厲的評價則認為 Knecht
只能換回一枚次輪籤而已。
The Lakers didn’t move Knecht this summer, with anything the team possibly ab
le to get for Knecht not worth giving up on the potential that’s still there.
But after a rough preseason debut where he shot 1 of 12, scouts left Palm Des
ert as pessimistic as ever, one even calling Knecht a “negative asset,” mean
ing the Lakers would need to attach pieces to incentivize a team in a trade.
可是最後湖人隊今夏並沒有交易 Knecht，因為不論能換回什麼，都不值得放棄他仍然存
在的潛力。
可是在季前賽首秀中，他投籃 12 投僅中 1，表現相當掙扎。球探們離開 Palm Desert
時比以往更加悲觀，甚至有一位球探直言 Knecht 是「負資產」，意思是湖人若要透過交
易送走他，還得額外附帶籌碼來吸引其他球隊接受。
後面有一段提他雖然下一場還是打得很差，但有東區總管匿名評論他看起來似乎有稍微好
那麼一點的內容
但不是很重要，反正DK現在的評價算是跌到一個低點了，需要一個機會重新證明自己
