I also wanted to bring up his high school shooting stats and compare them side by side:

High School: 0.5 3PM / 1.7 3PA / .286 3PT % / 3.9 FTM / 5.8 FTA / .675 FT%
College-Duke: 0.7 3PM / 1.8 3PA / .397 3PT% / 4.0 FTM / 6.3 FTA / .627 FT%
Both (HS-Duke): 0.6 3PM / 1.7 3PA / .346 3PT% / 4.0 FTM / 6.1 FTA / .648 FT%

That's quite the jump in 3PT% when the line is further back in college. What is the outlier? It's such a small sample size with these one and dones, I think their shooting form plays a much bigger role in a scouts decision. On Bogdanovic's first 57 3PAs (Bagley shot 58 at Duke) as a pro, he shot 33%. It's hard to judge solely by 3PT%.

I will say that I really like his form, and that his jumper looks very smooth. Knowing his work ethic, drive, and thirst to get better, I can see him becoming a 38%-42% 3pt shooter in this league. It might not be at a high volume where he is taking contested or step back threes, but I think he can become a very good shooter when it's all said and done.

Agreed. If he's a good enough shooter to get teams to try and run him off the line he's going to be a menace with his athleticism/size going to the basket.

" I mean the guy who chocked away a chance to steal game 1"

"lmao are you serious? and what did he do? so great Lebron cant wait to get the hell outta there"

"Yeah the guy who averaged 7 pts 2.5asst and a half a rebound a game in 28 minutes. That real winner there."
So you're saying Hill isn't very good.

Ok, then why did Vlade sign the guy to a 3 year $57 million dollar contract within the past year if he wasn't very good.

Would you say that Vlade made a mistake in signing him? As a result you are stuck with 11 million Shumpert contract.

Yes Vlade did mess up by signing him but I think his logic was he would trade him this summer had Hill not fallen off a cliff.
