But that was high school. In college you have to be better. slufanskip likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure he knows he has to if he wants a shot at the bigs. I bet that's been a huge part of his off season practicing, and since we have enough offensive firepower to supply a small militia I bet he'll be able to shoot that 40% without much defensive pressure. The other guys' defenders have to worry about Perkins, Parker, Jimerson, and maybe even Kramer before Yuri is their priority from the perimeter.

Fred was slightly worse than Yuri in some categories and slightly better others. The one with the big difference is the TOs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3star_recruit Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 Yuri averaged 2.3 turnovers a game in his 2nd season. He doesn't have a turnover problem. He had a "I'm forced to set the table for every guy on this team" problem. Which has been resolved. slufanskip, Bills By 40, wgstl and 2 others like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Yuri had 2 less turnovers a game we'd have scored 10 less ppg last year. Can't we just ask him to quit making the passes that don't work?

3star_recruit Posted June 22, 2022 Share Posted June 22, 2022 The NBA is a volume 3pt game. Props to Van Vleet for working each year to become that kind of player. It's very hard to do. slufanskip and billiken_roy like this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting on the international student visa to clear. Once it does, he's good to go. He expected it "about two weeks" from the time of our interview, which was 13 days ago as I write this, so it should be any day now.
