McKneely gives Virginia a fast start, Cavaliers roll to a 62-45 victory over Coppin State
Isaac McKneely hit three straight 3-pointers in the closing minutes of the first half to push Virginia to a double-digit halftime lead and the Cavaliers cruised to a 62-45 win over...NOVEMBER 12 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Scores 12 points in loss McKneely had 12 points (3-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 34 minutes during Saturday's 73-48 loss to Duke.
Impact McKneely was one of Virginia's best players in this game, but that doesn't say much from a fantasy perspective, as the Cavaliers only mustered 48 total points while McKneely shot a woeful 3-for-11 from the field. The Cavaliers have been struggling badly on offense in recent games, but they'll aim to bounce back in their final game before the ACC Tournament when they take on Georgia Tech on Saturday.

Goes for 15 points in loss McKneely amassed 15 points (5-9 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds and three assists in 37 minutes during Tuesday's 74-63 loss to Pittsburgh.
Impact McKneely couldn't repeat the 29-point effort he delivered against Florida State on Feb. 10, but he posted another solid stat line with contributions on both ends of the court. McKneely has now scored in double digits in six of Virginia's last eight contests, averaging 14.6 points per game in that stretch.

Scores 18 points Wednesday McKneely produced 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists in 19 minutes during Wednesday's 77-53 win over Louisville.
Impact McKneely ended a four-game scoring drought in which he couldn't score in double digits, and he bounced back with one of his best offensive showings of the season. He's certainly capable of making an impact on offense, but the lack of consistency on a game-to-game basis has hurt him a bit. After all, he's scored in double digits just four times across his last eight contests.

Picks up scoring McKneely had 18 points (7-11 FG, 4-7 3Pt), two rebounds and two assists across 19 minutes during Wednesday's 77-53 win over Louisville.
Impact McKneely went a bit quiet in the scoring department after back-to-back 22-point games to start the month of December, but Wednesday's showing against an atrocious Louisville defense allowed him to snap a streak of four consecutive games in single digits. That doesn't necessarily mean a major turnaround is forthcoming, especially with Virginia set to hit the road for upcoming ACC matchups at NC State (Dec. 6) and Wake Forest (Dec. 13).

Hits 22-point mark again McKneely recorded 22 points (8-11 FG, 6-8 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist and one block in 26 minutes during Tuesday's 77-47 win over North Carolina Central.
Impact McKneely posted an identical scoring stat line for the second straight game, and he also extended his double-digit scoring run to three contests. The sophomore has settled into a starting role this season and the numbers back him up, as he's averaging 12.9 points per contest in eight starts while logging 28.9 minutes per contest, all noticeable upticks compared to his freshman year.

Impact McKneely scored eight or nine points during each of his last three games played. While the sophomore guard's aforementioned scoring is not in double figures, it is consistent and better than his freshman average, which was 6.7 points across 33 games.

Returns to floor against Wisconsin McKneely (ankle) is in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Wisconsin.
Impact McKneely has been battling an ankle injury, but will return to action in the opening game of the Fort Myers Tip-Off. McKneely was averaging 10.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.7 three-pointers prior to going down. Dante Harris will return to the bench.

Not suiting up Thursday McKneely will not play in Thursday's game against Texas Southern due to an ankle injury, Mike Barber of the Richmond Times-Dispatch reports.
Impact McKneely likely suffered the ankle injury in their last game against North Carolina A&T. McKneely was averaging 10.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 2.7 three-pointers, and 2.0 assists per game this season. Dante Harris will get the start in his place on Thursday.

Plays 25 despite injury McKneely finished Saturday's 71-63 loss to North Carolina with four points (2-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt) and six rebounds in 25 minutes.
Impact McKneely sprained his left hand and wrist more than a week ago but was able to log his regular dose of minutes. The freshman logged 20-to-29 minutes each of his games played during February, when he averaged 5.9 points and 3.3 rebounds.

Scores team-high 15 points McKneely ended Friday's 89-42 win over Monmouth with 15 points (5-8 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 1-3 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 28 minutes.
Impact McKneely didn't look good in the season opener and barely made an impact, but he enjoyed a big run of minutes here in a blowout and didn't waste the chance to impress the coaching staff. That said, McKneely is expected to keep coming off the bench in the coming games, and that should limit his upside going forward.
NOVEMBER 12, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Potential rotation candidate McKneely has a chance to crack the Virginia rotation as a freshman according to head coach Tony Bennett, Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports reports.
Impact Virginia has a trio of four-star freshman in this year's recruiting class, and while power forward Isaac Traudt generally has the highest consensus ranking, he has two major roadblocks to playing time in the form of Jayden Gardner and Ohio transfer Ben Vander Plas. McKneely, on the other hand, plays shooting guard, which is a position in need of depth. While Kihei Clark, Reece Beekman and Armaan Franklin are all returning starters that will again play heavy minutes, there simply are not many other options behind them. It effectively makes sense that McKneely could see action in the backcourt early, though he still should be considered more of a longer-term prospect than a redraft option.
