Shooting, shooting, shooting. It’s what the Los Angeles Lakers need to make Luke Walton’s offense hum, and, at the very least, it’s what the team is getting in second round pick Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, a 6’8” wing out of Kansas who struck fear into the hearts of his Big 12 opponents any time he was behind the 3-point line with even of inches of daylight with which to see the basket.
Like the Lakers’ Moe Wagner selection, it’s easy to see why the front office favored Mykhailiuk with the 47th overall pick in this draft given the team’s ineptitude from behind the arc last season (29th as a team in three point percentage).
