I kind of hope that Memo talks more to him about growing up and learning the game than shooting long range threes. Malone is fine for Favors, they have similar backgrounds and personalities, but Kanter is a fish out of water being from Turkey living in the states. To have a fellow countryman who knows the language and the culture that Enes grew up in should help in his maturation.
Oh, and before people wig out on me for you know what, Malone would bond with Gordon better than Kanter for the same reasons.
