What's really frustrating: this is likely the level of success Trae will see when/if he gets a fresh start on a talented roster.

So, you think Trae will shoot at a higher percentage, and turn the ball over less if he had a more talented roster?

Yes.

Trae Young always starts the season off shooting terribly. (I've never understood why.)

And then goes supernova before settling in on solid shooting splits down the stretch of the season.

Thats false.

Trae has been a 40-42% shooter even in College. He averaged 5.2 turnovers per game in College and 4.7 this season as a Hawk.

The numbers aay you're wrong. If you can't shoot, you can't shoot.
