From the day Melo Trimble showed up at his Impact Basketball training facility in Las Vegas, Joe Abunassar’s job was twofold: restoring the former Maryland guard’s consistency with his outside shot, along with the confidence he had taking it.

Given what transpired over the next two months — minus the days Trimble was in Chicago at the NBA draft combine as well as going through private workouts with nine teams — Abunassar said he believes he was successful in reaching both goals.

“We did a lot of repetition with him, in getting his shot into one motion,” Abunassar said by telephone Wednesday.
