KNIGHT NOTES: Knight was briefly a teammate of Matt Harpring's with the Cleveland Cavaliers during the 2000-01 season. ... Though he helped recruit twins Jarron and Jason Collins to Stanford, he finished his collegiate career before they played there. ... The Jazz, O'Connor confirmed, were among interested suitors in Knight's services after he was waived by Charlotte last year. ... Last year, Knight was second in the NBA with a 4.62 assists-to-turnover ratio. ... The New Jersey native, who became Stanford's all-time assists leader, will make $1.6 million next season in the last of his two-year, $3.2 million contract. ... The last time he participated in the postseason was in 2004 with the Bucks.
