I’d feel better if Evans was a 40+% 3-point shooter in college. But his 36% is a bit underwhelming. And I just read a draft analysis that said Evans needs to work on his shooting mechanics.
He's a 2nd rounder for a reason, yet he was rated 25th overall when I looked him up. He has a good improvement arc going on, we could have done worse.

Pistons are trading Isaiah Stewart to the Grizzlies for multiple future 2nd round picks.

Oh well. We didn't have multiple 2nd round picks to send... ;)

Detroit was rumored to be hot on the trail of Ayo so for those complaining about how much Ayo got, there were real threats.

I wonder who the Pistons are maneuvering to acquire.

That's surprising cause my spark notes research suggest he was one of the best shooters in the class period. Multiple draft analyst are in love with the pick with the thought that he can help right away due to his shooting

By the way, Ischenko is still available!! Does anyone remember the Russian Rubio, Alexey Shved? Look out Shved, when pick #59 rolls around, your legacy will be eclipsed by a PG named Vsevolod Ischenko.

I hope those draft analysts turn out to be right. But it’s hard to dismiss that 36% number. And it’s disturbing that there’s at least one draft analyst who thinks Evans has flawed shooting mechanics.

Is it true that Isaiah Evans spent 4 million on his draft night fit? I sure hope not.
