Imagine CMB with a 3pt shot! Holy ****!!!

If he can develop any kind of semi-competent 3pt shot, he'll be pretty valuable if all of what we're seeing translates, yeah.

I had confidence before the draft he would be able to improve it to a respectable level but after seeing him I'm even more encouraged, the shot looks better than it did at SC, even his free throws look better. He has the right mindset so I'm not concerned about his work ethic, he'll get there.

Obviously, the sample is a little small and most of the 3s I've seen have been very, very wide open. But it is at least somewhat encouraging, for sure. If he can add a little of that to his game while primarily dwelling in the big-man spaces, that would be a big deal for his potential utility, for sure.

I dont see Shead as a guaranteed backup in this league yet. He needs to be more consistent offensively as a playmaker. He’s not really a threat shooting the ball and he’s not the greatest at finishing either.

He’ll definitely get better, hopefully well enough to get minutes.

He's already a capable fill-in spot starter. If you're talking championship contender backup, then maybe not quite yet.

Summer league's insanity seemed like it was mandated to push break-neck speed, so real NBA games would feel slower. He already plays decent coming in as a backup in regular season games.

Its different when you’re playing decent as a backup when your team is tanking and playing decent when your team is trying to win. The impact the player has won’t be the same.

Those wide open shots are the ones he's gotta make, they will let him shoot in the NBA cuz you don't want him going downhill that's where he's most dangerous. He's a very good finisher and will get to the line rather easily.
