This man has never been this wide open, and he was an elite shooter last year in Washington.

He's taken 38 shots and is 60% from 2 and 62% from 3.

Everyone is talking about the Giannis/Dame PnR, but I believe the Tatum/Porzingis PnR is going to be as deadly because of their size and shooting combination.

yea he’s greatly improved the weaknesses in early post game, attacking switches etc and really refined his game just in terms of knowing his spots on the court and when to rise up. he’d be a much better complementary player to luka now.

next improvement i want to see is getting him corner looks. he’s always been solely an above the break 3 point shooter and with his shooting ability getting open corner looks for him could be lethal. horford was the same way up until we really started weaponizing it the past couple seasons. hoping to see the same here.

No, because Luka wouldn't pass him the ball when KP had a mismatch. The same problem surfaced again with Christian Wood. The team would freeze him out and then finally pass it to him and wonder why he would miss.
