It seems so. Tall enough for a 4 on defense, yet he was also used for...

guarding guards. Since he's so tall and agile, he's a solid defender. On the offensive side he hit a lot of 3's (with great form). Also, I'm pretty sure I saw a stat that only 29% of his shots are FGs. At the same, he can take a couple steps into the lane and dunk quite easily at 6'9". ** Edited by HokieJonez at 5/25/2026, 10:48:12 PM

Better arc than Schutt? Is it possible to make a shot without this . . .

There was a guy that played for EC Glass in the 70’s. Kenny Ray Smith

mike jordan had a distinctly flat shooting arc with minimal loft at unc

Schutt’s shot was not that flat when he first came, was it? I haven’t

Yep. Something happened about halfway through the season this past year**

Hah, yeah... I don't really know how Schutt ever made it go in.
HokieJonez • 05/26/26 04:30 PM ET
IMO that’s lack of strength/elevation
hokiepro • 05/26/26 06:58 PM ET
His shot arc changed. Did he get weaker & generate less elevation?
marcbvtgm • 05/28/26 11:36 AM ET
Could’ve been trying quicker release; could’ve been dead legs
hokiepro • 05/28/26 12:39 PM ET
I said speed up his release, no? Weak & dead legs are two different things.
marcbvtgm • 06/01/26 10:20 AM ET
Mostly this

So, does he split time between the 3 & 4?**
