Quotes:

Before entering his junior season at Wisconsin, Draft Express had this to say about Koenig:

"“Though he isn’t particularly adept at creating high percentage shots around the rim, and scores a below average .882 points per shot finishing around the basket in the half court when he does find daylight, Koenig is comfortable handling pressure and uses hesitation and step back moves effectively to create space for himself to get his jump shot off in a pinch.”"

BT Powerhouse does not feel as though Koenig will be drafted this summer, but gives him an outside shot at making the league:

"“Koenig probably will not get drafted and will have to rely on an impressive Summer League stint to have any hope of snagging a spot as an 11th man somewhere.”"
