Yeah, I’m kinda befuddled on what even needs to be said that isn’t glaringly obvious, but I will just underscore the point that basic centers often cannot close games in the playoffs so trying to develop this wrinkle in the best possible situations to develop it could make a major difference for his and the Jazz’s prospects down the line.
 
Karl Malone was a career 27 % 3pt shooter, taking 0,2 per game. In his later years he never took more than 0,5 per, and the % wasn't improved.

The league has obviously changed, but Kessler has taken more threes in the last 5 games than Malone took in 15 of his 19 seasons.
Yeah, cuz basketball used to be very stupid.
 
Because it helps the tank, makes Walker happy and proves that he sucks at it. So in future they can tell him "well, you tried it but you shot 13%, so let's focus on other things."

Or he maybe figures it out! But probably not.
 
I guarantee you within 1 month of locker clean-out day, either Tony or Andy or Walker or Will is going to confirm that Walker and Will had a bet, that if Walker demonstrated dominance in the area Will wanted (or hit some particular metric), Will would run 2-3 3 point plays for him the rest of the season.
