New York Knicks: Willy Hernangomez Aims to Improve Shot This Summer

Willy Hernangomez unexpectedly rose to prominence during his rookie season with the New York Knicks. For his next act, the Knicks center will look to add a jump shot to his arsenal.

In a season-closing interview with the team, Hernangomez discussed his rookie season, offseason plans, and how he aims to improve for next season.

Perhaps the most significant comment from the interview was that Hernangomez plans to work on his jump shot.

Hernangomez showed plenty of promise last season, but his shot was generally an eyesore. He shot 52.9 percent from the field, but attempted just 15 shots from 3-point range.
