Carter Knight's decision to play in the ISFL started in his freshman year of high school. He had the option to play either basketball or baseball, and while he enjoyed basketball better at the time, he decided to stick with football since all his friends were football players. Luckily it worked out, and he's now a starting QB on a great DSFL team.
But what if Carter chose basketball? Where would he be now. Since in the NBA you can skip college, Knight would have entered the NBA as a fresh 18 year old, and would have already spent a few years in the league at this point. Since his favorite football team was the Hawks as a kid, Knight decided to join them in an eventful free agency, and he led the team to the playoffs alongside Kevin Huerter and Trae Young. This trio led them to the Conference Championship, where they had to face Giannis and the Bucks to win. This team, with the help of Knight, beat the Bucks in 6 and was headed to the Championship. They beat the Suns in 5 and Knight was enshrined in a Finals MVP as well as a trophy. To this day he would be on the Hawks, and would likely retire a HoFer.
