Sean Cunningham retweeted
Zach LaVine on Kings needing to generate more 3Ps: “The right people got to shoot them. But, I mean, certain people aren’t off-the-dribble shooters, you know. So you have to help them get shots.” “You need to have downhill penetration. You got to have, you know, people being willing to help off of these guys. If they’re not willing to help, or if defenders aren’t getting beat and put in situations to rotate, you know, you’re not going to generate them unless you’re a good off-the-dribble three-point shooter, create your own shot.” “We only have so many of those guys on the team.”
