For the season he's making 76% of his shots at the rim, 38% from short-midrange (4-14 feet), and 33% from the long mid-range (9-for-27). He's 4-for-17 on corner 3's and 7-for-15 on non-corner 3's.
So the only shots he's good at are at the rim or non-corner 3's.
In 36 games he's made 45 short mid-range shots, 9 long mid-range shots, and 11 three-pointers. IOW, the low shooting percentages tell only part of the story. He's averaging less then one made 3-pointer every three games. And barely less than two mid-range makes per game. Add it up and he's averaging less than two field goals per game NOT at the rim.
He needs Mitchell, Garland, Strus, and LeVert to break down the defense and get him the ball at the rim. Sometimes he contributes by setting the screen and rolling, getting a pass and finishing. He should get better at that as his career progresses.
Whether he'll even be able to consistently make 6-10 foot fallaways when his path to the rim is blocked is questionable. He has no push shot, no jump hook, and his touch and accuracy on short jump shots is abysmal. I'm sure he'll work hard on it in the off-season. He might be one of those guys who takes a step every year and keeps improving gradually. But I doubt he ever becomes his own shot creator like Durant or Giannis.
