That's probably why when Kobe would break a finger he wouldn't skip a beat. He would adjust to a different finger coming off last on the ball and his shot wasn't affected. Some guys just have a natural ability to "feel" the shot mechanics and make tweaks.
What those stats fail to mention is that AD was inactive in one of those games (2/23/19) and had limited minutes in another (2/27/19) and yes he counted those games in those stats. They have actually only played vs each other 5x and as mentioned one of those times AD played limited minutes. And btw in the 5 actual games that AD played vs Kuz including the game with limited minutes, AD's stats were: 31/14/3asst/2blks (rounded) on .624 FG% Regardless, Kuz proved he could even score on AD, which is awesome for a 1st and 2nd year forward. It's on the other end he needs to pick it up to be a star. Thankfully Vogel said a major focus of his is to get Kuz to play effective D.
Of course! It will be interesting to see how tall he gets. Right now he wears a size 14 shoe and his hands are bigger than mine. His doctor says that he could grow to be anywhere from 6'7" to 6'11"... he hasn't been able to play club ball since October because of growing pains and Osgood Schlatter. After reading this two part article on youth basketball in America, I'm going to really hold him back from playing. He doesn't need to do that to his growing body. There is a extensive discussion about Kobe Bryant... Kobe says that he really did not play competitively until he was 15, which is quite interesting... he says that contributed to his longevity in the league.

Splint on middle finger .... Kobe jacks up 5,000 in 4 hours prior to game .... boom is knocking down shots and playing his game. He always looked like nothing was even bothering him. Cyborg.
I had that s*** as a kid and wore knee pads for basketball. I had painful bumps right below front of the kneecaps.
Have got a raspberry gif now and not afraid to use it against hurtful comments like that. What would @Big Mamma Jamma 's son think you perv?
Let the record show that Kuz should be free of the curse.. We know Simmons is one of them and I believe the other is Blake if I'm not mistaken.
