Amundson?

Amundson NBDL stats

Amundson has started 10 of 12 games for the Colorado 14ers:

averages for his last 5 games:

22.4 min
65% FG
33% FT
5.4 Reb
2.6 blks
10.4 ppg

As a rebounder shot blocker, to get any minutes in the Big's he needs FT % closer to 70-75%. Artest loved him as he is big time hustler. But..........
 
That "but" being he looked completely incompetent in his minutes for us. Can't fault the effort, but there was nothing else there in camp.

My effort would be there, too, but fundamental skills are the foundation of a solid NBA player. He's got a ways to go. ;)
 
If the guy were shooting 85% on his FT, my bet is that we would never have waived him, particularly since the Maloofs seemed to be big fans. But when you could take FT lessons from KT and improve, that is not a good thing. That is so much of an embarassment that it almost wouldn't matter how much you might make your team better.

As it is, he is looking like the rookie version of a poor man's Brian Skinner. I hope that he can fix the gaps in his game and work his way onto an NBA roster one day, but I'm not pining over the fact that it probably won't be for the Kings.
