Could we see Rudy Gobert start taking some corner 3s this season?
What a sentence that is.
The 7-foot-1 Gobert is entering his 11th NBA season and has yet to make a 3-pointer in his career. Not only that, but his touch as a shooter is so unrefined that he regularly smokes seemingly easy shots around the rim. Given how far the aesthetics of Gobert’s game are from resembling something of capable jump shooting, the idea of him spotting up for 3-pointers seems crazy. However, is it totally insane to think that there’s a chance that we could see such an idea actualize itself on the court for the Timberwolves this year?
