Chauncey Billups: Shaedon Sharpe is ‘Playing the Right Way’

Another night, another blowout, and another edition of the Shaedon Sharpe Show. On Friday night the Portland Trail Blazers lost an additional game to the Sacramento Kings, 138-114, but head coach Chauncey Billups continues to give the rookie guard free rein to make plays and make mistakes as the season winds down.

With the addition of Skylar Mays to the roster, Sharpe was able to focus on scoring over facilitation, dumping in 27 points – three points shy of his career high. It’s become crystal clear that, while still green, Sharpe has the talent to be a coveted asset for this team.
