    41% but I think Luke's presence on the court does give players more space than ever to shoot on the Lakers. He's probably the only sniper the Lakers have had since LeBron's time that can actually hit threes and you're not surprised by it.

    Malik was supposed to be that guy but he couldn't handle the spotlight

    I don't expect the Lakers to be #2 in 3 point shooting, though. Top 15 would be more than sufficient for what the Lakers have. Luka's been hitting some unimaginably difficult 3's that shouldn't be going in so it'll average itself out

    Every single person on the coaching staff needs to tell Luke that if he’s open and wants to make the extra pass, he should never, ever, ever, ever, ever, never, pass it to Vando for a three. Shoot the rock kid!

    In a way, I love that part of Kennard's game. He's unselfish and just plays good basketball.

    As good of a shooter he is, he could easily take 6-9 threes per game and no one would bat an eye.
