Players who are struggling with their shooting help teams other ways
Coaches see it, but fans judge the quality of a basketball player is whether they can shoot. With Collins being 6'4 it is more glaring. If he was 6'9 and playing a different position it would be less noticeable. Fans don't notice the help defense, the close outs, the boxing out - stuff that don't fill out published stat sheets.

MJ Collins just isn’t a very good basketball player

It’s not just about the box score I agree

Watch CMY's presser after game and he'll explain why he gets minutes, esp.

He plays good defense and can help with ball handling. Those are valuable

I disagree with that take, except for the obvious poor shooting.
