If I’m reading this right Black has a higher points per shot average than Dick and Wallace at stationary catch and shoot shots?
Super low volume, the PPS don't matter much for him.
Looks like about the same volume as Wallace.
It also looks like Dick is ELITE at pull-up shots.
Yeah I think that's a fair thing to point out with the caveat that both are SSS.
This is why I think Dick might have some hidden high potential. He also has a crazy weird shot chart where he was almost 50% from above the break and barely 30% (IIRC) from the corners. He made the tougher shots, missed the easy ones. I trust a guy who makes the "hard" shots to make the easy ones more than the other way around. His off the dribble shooting might be special.

They are the bogey side step one dribble variety mostly... but he shoots the **** out of it and isn't just like Korver levels of one dimensional like people think.

All around the room, team officials flipped through eight sheets of paper showing which teams owned each combination. The mood was frantic.
Ten seconds later, the third ball: No. 8. Several teams were still alive. Brett Greenberg, the Washington Wizards assistant general manager, knew instantly the Wizards had a chance. All 67 of their combinations had the No. 5 as the lowest digit. There were 11 balls left in the hopper. If the last ball drawn was No. 7, No. 9, No. 10, No. 11, No. 12 or No. 13, the Wizards would get Wembanyama. Eleven balls left; six were winners for Washington.
"Holy s---, we have a chance," Greenberg thought to himself. He hunched over his combination sheets and took a deep breath.
Lowe: What happened inside the secret NBA lottery drawing room
Jubilation, anguish and the latest offseason intel: behind the scenes from the most consequential NBA draft lottery room in decades, where the Spurs landed the right to select No. 1 prospect Victor Wembanyama.

This is fair….but I do think he’s someone who could get 10+ threes off a game with the right coach. Wish we saw him in a higher volume role at Kansas.
That didn't work out when we drafted Trey BUrke and gave up two picks to do it. One could have been Giannis and the other Rudy. Instead, we went with a short slow PG who I think is out of the league or at the end of the bench. You take the best player period. Portland did the same thing and passed on MJ for Bowie because they already had Clyde Drexler. They needed a center and ignored Bowie's injury history. You don't have to swing for the fences, great players are found all throughout the draft. You have to find a guy who wants to be good, has talent and plays team ball. I don't know enough about GG, but the red flags for me is his lack of skills besides creating his own shot. I would be fine taking him at 16 but not at 9, but if he is the best player left on the board I would change my opinion and take him. I just hope the Jazz can find a very good player and a good role player in this draft. I would consider this success.
Me when I get the first number in a powerball drawingI would not want to read this if I was a Wizards fan lol damn…

Yes, because teams just draft the two best players in the draft basically outside the lottery every year.
