Caleb McConnell Draft Analysis - from The Athletic

[RU848789]

The San Antonio Spurs have had a dedicated shooting coach for awhile. Kawhi Leonard went from a bad 3 point shooter to being an excellent one. Granted, not every bad shooter is going to turn into Steph Curry, but you can at least turn a bad shooter into someone who can knock down open shots on a somewhat consistent basis.

He went from 37-38% his first few years in the league, which is very good, to 39-40% has last few years in the league (with a high of 44% in 2015-16). Certainly a nice improvement, overall, but he was in no way a "bad" shooter before.

He's comparing to college.

How many guys in the NBA consistently knock down 3s that were bad shooters over 4 years of. College?

How many guys in the NBA played 4 years in college?

How many guys in the NBA played 4 years in college?

How many played 5?
My point is shooting isn’t an easy thing to improve or everyone would be doing it
