Scoring From All Three Levels
Wendell Carter Jr. is one of the few bigs in this league who can shoot from anywhere on the floor with at least some degree of consistency. Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic are the gold standard; Karl-Anthony Towns, Nikola Vucevic, and Kristaps Porzingis each do it on an advanced level; and many think Evan Mobley will develop assorted range as his game evolves.
Carter is just coming into his own offensively. During his time in Chicago, nearly all his looks were within five feet of the basket. Since joining the Orlando Magic, the 6-foot-10, 270-pounder has expanded his range and refined his touch from different areas of the floor.
