While I agree step back 3s are not likely to be a big part of his game, working on his post game isn't the best use of his time either given the way the game has trended away from that discipline. At least he's working on his footwork and shooting mechanics.
pretty much this, its a footwork exercise and mechanics. the step back is also used in the face up game too regardless of where you are. but DH will find himself more at the 3 point line than in the post with the way Raptors run their offense.
DH is going to be used in the PnR a lot or stand in the corner, luring his big man defender away from the basket.
