In terms of raw talent, he’s the best shooter since Curry came out. So that’s a pretty faulty reason to be worried about him.
Maybe, though you could say the same of Curry whom experienced more success still though strength of schedule may have been a factor in that too. I think the margins are so small with that type of player, but you may be right. I may be overreacting especially considering SOS.
Only 27% of Trae's 3's were assisted last year which is quite insane. Steph in the NBA is at 61% for his career and that's considered low.
The hope is with better teammates and better shot selection, Trae can get that % up which will in turn increase his overall 3pt%.
Young is an intriguing prospect due to his 3 point abilities and the way he gets open. He could very well end up being the next Curry but who knows. I still will like to have someone like Bamba or Porter. I hope we end up with a top 3 pick instead.
