2030 Kai McKnight: Has made tremendous strides in his game over the last year. Shows good handle and pace, with athleticism that translates on both ends of the floor. Attacks gaps, consistently gets paint touches, and has the bounce to finish above the rim. Plays unselfishly and continues to show growth as an overall playmaker. High-level talent with significant upside! #SCSophomore40

6’0 ‘29 Kai McKnight (CSF Falcons) is consistently finding ways to make his presence felt. Displaying feel, adaptability, and a well-rounded skillset. Getting downhill and finishing through contact while knocking down jumpers at a nice rate. Involved on both ends #HoopStateLeague

Love the backcourt duo of Makai McKnight and AJ Cureton both in the Top 15 of the 2029 Swannys Roundball Review Palmetto State Rankings. Both played great here today at USC Team Camp. #SwannysRoundballReview – at West Columbia, SC
