What makes his so effective?
“Shooting percentage, he takes the shots he likes and he makes," Williams said. "The effectiveness of an offensive player is do you not turn it over and do you shoot a high percentage? And I think he does both of those and is fantastic.
“In ACC play, he’s shooting 47.5 overall, (but) he’s shooting 51 percent in the league. He’s effective because he’s dadgum good. He takes shots he can make, doesn’t take bad shots, doesn’t take rushed shots, he keeps running around those screens, curls sometimes flares sometimes. He’s effective because of his numbers – he has those numbers because he’s really a dadgum good player.”
