His teammate, Tyrese Proctor, caught the ball as it was careening out of bounds. His momentum was carrying him to the boundary line along with the ball. Another second and he’s probably turning the ball over back to NC State with a chance to tie the game or cut into the lead potentially.

Late in the second half of Duke's ACC contest versus the NC State Wolfpack, guard Tyrese Proctor began to fall out of bounds with the basketball in his hands. Knueppel's brain then proceeded to turn all the way up to 10 and, instead of waiting for a pass, he decided to grab his teammate's leg and pull back him onto the court.

Arthur “Bud” Rose, Kon’s great grandfather, was an N.C. State basketball player and gained honorable mention All-American status in the 1931-32 season. "It's pretty sweet," Knueppel said after the Blue Devils' 10th straight win to start ACC play. "I know my grandparents were watching back home. Full-circle moment there. Pretty proud."
