KU sophomore Garrett changes shooting form: 'I feel comfortable now'

Kansas sophomore combo guard Marcus Garrett says he spent the month of June working on all aspects of his game, with extra emphasis on his outside shot.

“I actually changed how I shoot the ball,” said Garrett, a 6-foot-5, 180-pound graduate of Dallas Skyline High.

He reworked his shot at the conclusion of the 2017-18 season and continued tinkering with it through the Jayhawks' first session of summer school (June 5-25).

“I’ve worked on getting the right spin on the ball. I used to have top-spin; now I have front-spin. It feels better when I shoot it,” Garrett said during a recent interview at Brett Ballard’s Washburn University hoops camp at Lee Arena in Topeka.
