But since returning to JJ Redick’s small papers two weeks ago (6.5 points and 5.6 rebounds in 23 minutes), the interior has improved in shooting: bye 29% on 3-pointers to start the season (4 of 14); a surprising 52% success rate in the exercise (11 out of 21)!
Originally, Jarred Vanderbilt revived for help in defense Lakers to progress and, obviously, his recording progress – even if the sample remains small – is welcome.
« Obviously we need his athletic qualities, his ability to defend several positions. It’s important that he’s back in the rotation and we appreciate that » reminded action LeBron Jamesafter win against the Grizzlies. « But we also need him to get his shots into the corner from time to time, when opposing teams aren’t defending him. It’s like they don’t respect him by not even challenging his punches. He works a lot in training every day, repeats this type of shot, and Luka Dončić attracts so much attention… Either his pivot is defended, or a forward comes to his aid, but he doesn’t hesitate, he just shoots. It doesn’t matter if he misses one or two shots in a row, he’ll just make the next shot. »
This is the meaning of the message of Fr Luka Dončić who, like LeBron James, encourages Jared Vanderbilt to continue his momentum, for the good of the team. Because his energy alone will not be enough without spontaneity behind the line.
« He worked a lot on his shot » was confirmed by a Slovenian first. ” I saw some things this summer, he showed that he is working on them. It will increase his confidence. If opponents keep letting him shoot, we’ll always pass him the ball when he’s open. Then, even outside of his baskets, there are so many other things he does that help us win. (…) This is exactly what we need from him, to continue like this and we all support him fully. He is often the key to our victories. »
