It’s time for another edition of the Liberty Ballers mailbag.
I’m going under on this one. While Markelle’s shot appears to have improved from the clips we’ve seen, it still doesn’t look great: it’s a bit slow and has a low release point. I don’t imagine the shot is a finished product, and ironing mechanics out could lead to a low 3PT%. Should a conversion rate of 32/33% be the case, confidence should ensue, not panic (also though, I’d be prepared for a number as low as 29/30%). I think what you need to see from Markelle is just a willingness to shoot it.
