He was 0-5 in exhibition from 3 as well...not that anyone is counting...lol. His shot is funky but it looks like his mid range is hitting and obviously layups are a good idea.

Is this odd or Is he not a good shooter?

I'd grade him an average shooter. Not a knock down guy, but certainly better than he has shown so far...

I still think he’s a good player. He’s shooting will improve still going to have a good career

He has to be better than 0-fer. Hell, I'm pretty confident I could at least hit a free throw...& give me 8 tries at a 3, and who knows? One might luck in! (on a bank?)

It might be nice if Eliel Nsoseme could sink a FT once in a while. Diarra looks decent at the line

We have had many wings over the years shooting in the low 30's and even a couple sub 30% shooters from 3. Most of them (if not all) could not drive the ball like Williams can. I just hope he is not a sub 30% kind of guy. I would take low 30's from him with his driving ability.

I think he will get it going and eventually be a 30% plus shooter. Maybe not this year but eventually.

Nsoseme is hopeless on FT. I agree Diarra looks good. He's a good shooter in general. If he learns how to play, look the f out.

Keith Williams is a much better shooter than he has shown both 3 pointers and free throws. In the semi- finals of his league championship he made 9of 10 in the 4 quarter and overtime. I hope he breaks out in the Caymans so everybody gives this a rest. Nsoseme might not make 50 percent of his ft's.

He did make 2-6 in the red and black game. I would be happy if he can shoot that percentage from 3.

I remember Jacob struggled with his shot for the majority of his freshman year until late and he is obviously a good shooter, so hopefully it is just nerves or getting use to the college game.
