On his exit interview, he was asked if he would be willing to come off the bench. Lots of fans are slotting JJ and Bender as the forwards and suggesting TJ come off the bench.
So what did he say, in reply to the question, about coming off the bench?

This was completely ridiculous that somewhat asked him that in his exit interview for the season after a season where he really stepped up and took his game to another level.

“His 3-point shooting is just tremendously better, just the form,” Kokoskov said of Warren.
“When talking about 3-point shooting, it’s hard for somebody like T.J. who is such a dominant driver and can take the ball to the basket and turn the corner pretty much any time he wants, it’s hard for him to develop 3-point shooting.”
Kokoskov said he’s been receptive to what the coaching staff is preaching about the importance of adding that area to his game, and an uncharacteristically animated T.J. Warren spoke at length about the tweaks he’s made to his form.
“Just body control, finishing how I start, holding my follow-through,” he said. “A lot of that went on this summer, so I’m excited to showcase that.
“I got up a lot of reps. It was one of the main things I wanted to work on, I didn’t really do anything else. I had a habit of turning my body, kicking my feet when I land. I just wanted to go straight up and straight down.”
Warren said during the summer he was getting up at least 300-400 shots a day, shooting until his arms felt ready to fall off. McDonough and Kokoskov both noted the diligence has paid off from what they’ve seen during summer workouts.

Kokoskov seems like a pretty straight shooter. I don't think he necessarily tries to make things sound rosier than they are.
