Lol form means nothing without the results. His college and nba %’s speak for themselves he’s never been a shooter. Nobody wants a 6’6 rebounding specialist this isnt 2005 where you can get away with brutes. The starters deserve a better bench.
What a silly take.
Rebounding is one of the greatest skills a player can possess. The ability to win your team extra possessions is extremely important and always will be.
He's a great piece on the bench. A guy that plays his role well and will eventually develop a shot.
To suggest "form means nothing without results" is just dumb considering this is only his rookie season and he just started getting playing time.
He's clearly improving that aspect of his game and it's beginning to show.
Heck, OG shot 31% on 2.8 attempts from behind the arc in his sophomore season. Now look at him.
Justin shot 31% on 3.7 attempts from behind the arc in his sophomore season... so give him some time, I trust the Raptors development staff to maximize his potential as a shooter as they've done with OG.
Hating on Champagnie at this point is ridiculous. Dude's been the lone bright spot off the bench.
