In a blog posting on Vaught's Views, brought to you by the Verizon Droid, Walker says that he's been impressed with how Knight can resist the urge to make a spectacular play and make a team play. Walker thinks that's the type of cerebral play that makes Knight a better freshman basketball player and one that is quietly thriving in Wall's massive shadow.
