After two seasons of showing all sorts of promise and potential, Talen Horton-Tucker’s stock took a massive hit this past season. An injury delayed his debut before having to hit the ground running immediately upon his return. Outside of a few promising stretches, he could not do so in a completely new role he’s never played before.
But Horton-Tucker’s season was a perfect example of talent vs. fit. With so many ballhandlers and so few shooters, Horton-Tucker was the one forced into an unfamiliar position and, thusly, ended up producing a highly inconsistent and unproductive season.
