Buzelis struggled from 3 this year but he has always been a solid shooter and there is nothing weird about his form to me. When watching his shooting in this video what about his form is weird to you?

No he hasn't. He's also a bad FT shooter. I forget which pod it was, but they went through all his shooting and he had one good shooting season and a bunch of bad ones.

He has a nice clean shooting stroke that I think will translate.

Two motion shot, a lot of movement on the form. Looks good because it will be "unblockable" but it's also easy to see why they aremt going in. His form is not conducive to NBA range. And this is in a video with all makes youre going to see the details he gets wrong when you watch actual game tape.

*And yes any form can be good if the player can make it work*

Definitely disagree with you. His release point is exactly where I want it to be. The beauty of the draft is that in a few years we get to see who is right and who is wrong.
 
Buzelis moves pretty well defensively and he moves the ball fairly well. It wouldn't entirely shock me if the Jazz took him. He can handle and create a bit for a long wing. Jazz would have to believe in his shooting.

Chicago reportedly wants to trade up to take him.

Luckily he seems to have enough supporters that he is gone by 10. Crossing my fingers he is gone.

Buzelis is a wing who can't shoot the NBA long ball and isn't even close to having NBA level ballhandling or burst. Other than that, great.

The shooting signals with Matas are concerning. Gordon Hayward didn't shoot well as a sophomore at Butler, but he had a decent freshman year and his FT shooting was always solid. It's hard to be able to say Buzelis was ever a good shooter in the past.

The hope for him is he really grows into his body and levels up athletically/physically (which seems somewhat in the cards)

Decent lmfao. He shot 45% from 3. Just decent I guess
