@fuukattino @MitchNathaniel it’s not really that lol, he’s changed the jumper some fs but the added weight/muscle is really what’s nuked his shooting ability. also why his handle feels less shifty/creative now & he’s struggling to create space.
the price to pay for added ability to play thru physicality

look how comfortable he was shooting out of the P&R with one dribble, even had a KD like hang dribble pull up, these are shots that the spurs are conceding each time. please just take this into consideration big bro. @MitchNathaniel
getoffmyfutason@fuukattino
24 run was perfect - lower release point gave him more room for error in late games with tired legs - more power allowed him to have a consistent high arc - faster release since he didn't need to jump/put the ball high before shooting

@bjpf_ 21% Deep 3Rate was why his 3P% cratered…
Maxey was just taking tougher 3s in college. Similar to Egor Demin last season.

DraftCasual (Quan)@DraftCasual
Study: Deep 3PT Rate Supplements Poor Shooting Efficiency Shooting Efficiency is very important, but doesn't tell the entire story. Especially, for inefficient shooters like Demin, Maxey, McDaniels who shooting translated to the NBA. The Missing Key?: Deep 3PT Rate (25+ feet) Deep-3 volume seems to signal shooting ability that TS% can’t capture, since poor efficiency can be driven by shot difficulty rather than lack of shooting ability. Taking difficult long jumpers aren't true indicator of their shooting ability. It does suggest confidence and skill validated in practice/coaches. I've built a simple query of all inefficient PGs, SGs, SFs drafted in first round (since 2019), that shot high Deep 3PT Rate. There was a 100% success rate that their shooting translated to the Pros. This leads me to believe, even if you're an inefficient Shooting 1st round graded prospect, as long as you're shooting enough Deep 3PA, the shooting will translate to the next level. draftcasual.com/home/stats?pla…

funnily enough, all of the even slightly “advanced” analytics projected maxey as a far better shooter than his college efficiency indicated
NBA Courtside@NBA__Courtside
Rich Paul says he BEGGED the Pelicans to draft his client Tyrese Maxey at pick 13 in the 2020 draft 😳 The Pelicans passed because the analytics said Tyrese Maxey wasn’t a good enough 3PT shooter at the time The Pelicans selected PG Kira Lewis Jr instead (Via Game Over)

The list isnt flattering, but what you said is untrue.
Ben Pfeifer@bjpf_
per barttorvik, keaton wagler will be the first drafted player listed 6’5 or taller since 2010 with zero career dunks only five 6’5+ players with FIVE or fewer dunks have been drafted: robbie hummel, jon diebler, ryan reid, kim english, da’sean butler and greivis vasquez.

@pmmbasketball High level movement shooter in an offense predicated on exactly that skill lol, he can shift between initiating those actions & coming off screens or DHOs just as he did at Kansas.

i swear its just posittional need because I quite frankly do not really see it as a good fit

“Being #1 [in the draft] is cool, but I’m more worried about the best fit for me.” — Darryn Peterson There is not a cleaner fit in the entire draft than the Utah Jazz and Darryn Peterson. sltrib.com/sports/jazz/20…

@esidery @ShamsCharania Castle tried to pull the same shit lol. Get ready to learn shooting guard in Utah buddy
English
Darryn Peterson’s representation is telling teams at the NBA Combine he views himself as a point guard, per @ShamsCharania.
This is notable as it relates to potential fits with the Wizards (Trae Young) and Jazz (Keyonte George).
English
@collinsworth55 Consensus so far is 80/20 for AJ going number 1 amongst NBA Executives
English
I’m not so sure the Wizards don’t draft Darryn Peterson at #1

@_apx5 @SamQuinnCBS One time all-nba, 3rd team mind you. No disrespect to Kyle but he never even sniffed superstardom
English
Ok this is a hill I will die on: the perfect career is Kyle Lowry.
You get the experience of being a superstar, but you aren't so iconic that you can't exist in public. Beloved in a single city. Unknown in most of the world. Won a title. Won a gold medal. Made money. Did it all.
Barry@BarryOnHere
Tobias Harris has made $277 million dollars while getting to fly under the radar. Never good enough to have any expectations as a franchise player, but never bad enough to be out of a rotation. Literally the perfect career.

Darryn Peterson…
One of the most efficient off ball shooters in NCAA history. 6’10 wingspan. Hyper-smooth athlete. Low turnover. Soft touch. Strong defensive metrics. Perfect 2-guard.

@databallr SGA ahead of Luka/Harden please play him with more shooters Mark

Potential Assists per minute on the ball vs On Ball %
Potential assists are passes that lead to a shot that would count for an assist if it was made
On Ball % is what percentage of the time the player holds the ball on offense
databallr@databallr
Just noticed Anthony Edwards is only generating 1.1 potential assists per minute On Ball this year. That's the second lowest number in the tracking era for players On Ball more than 30% of the time. His scoring is elite.. but is he involving teammates enough in your opinion?
English
Not to diminish anybody on the list, but the fact that Rudy Gobert wasn’t a finalist is idiotic
Minnesota genuinely could not hang defensively without him on the floor once again this season
Voter fatigue

@_utilitysports Not purposely injuring yourself would be a big one.
English
Genuinely what’s preventing a player from shooting and jumping forward into their feet with someone just directly guarding them
It’s supposed to be a close out rule. Murray pump fakes while McDaniels closes out. Then shoots well after the close out & launches forward on the shot
English
@Curious10416024 @UofBasketball @KalshiSports @KalshiHoops So the Spurs are 35-16 meaning OKC just barely beats them for the best record ITL

The 2026 NBA Draft is shaping up to be one of the best in recent memory. Who should be the top pick? What position will your favorite prospect play? Which teams should draft who?
PRISM has the answers.
