What does an improved Keyonte look like?

Good early signs. Except for the shooting percentages. It'll be interesting to see how those average out over time.

yup. seems hard to sustain 10 FTA/gm, but at the same time, one would expect his 3pt% to come up quite a bit as well. just have to hope the decrease in FTA and the increase in 3pt% keep his TS% somewhere in the high 50s or low 60s.

it's clear he's put in the work on his body and that is helping him finish through and seek contact.

Agree with others that this FTr is hard to sustain, but still looks to be a massive point of improvement and a reflection of several areas of improvement (iq, handle, athleticism). His 3 point shooting will rebound…even if he’s at where he was years 1-2 that will off set some of the unsustainable FT stuff.

Defensive effort has improved, I’m just not sure he has the instincts or defensive talent to ever be good. But he’s getting to that point where he may just be good enough to the point where he can still be a firm starter and beyond.

BPM has him at a +3/-1 offense/defense player. I’d say that’s pretty fair for his performance thus far.
