Vucevic
Vucevic really became a magic player when he became famous. At that time, although he made obvious progress than the rookie season, his overall performance can only be said to be quite satisfactory, far from reaching the later level. It can be said that the ball storm changed the fate of Vucevic. In the face of numerous traditional centers without the ball to play, Vucevic chose to transform himself to make himself more suitable for the small ball system. Facts have proved that Vucevic's approach is wise. After successful transformation, he became a high-quality center in the league. Not only was he selected for last season's All-Star team, his value soared, but he also got a contract worth 100 million!
Vucevic knows that if he wants to adapt to the era of small ball, he must have a stable three-point shooting ability, so as to help the team open up the offensive space. Fortunately, as a center player, he already has a very soft shooting feel, so he developed his long-range shooting ability in a short offseason. Today, Vucevic is a bigger threat outside the three-point line than many defenders. Outside marksmen like Mitchell, Paul and Gordon are not as good as his three-point shooting percentage, so his success depends on his own efforts.
At the same time, Vucevic has a good defensive attitude. Although he moves slowly, he is often beaten when defending perimeter players. But inside, Vucevic is definitely the top guard in the league. Under his interference, the hit rate of many players dropped significantly, so as long as he is on the court, both offensive and defensive ends of the team can be improved. Such an all-round center is also the champion puzzle of each team.
I believe that Vucevic himself is grateful for the arrival of the small ball storm. If the league keeps its traditional offensive style, then Vucevic will never be able to turn over, and even now he probably won't play in the NBA. Times make heroes, and this sentence is apt for him!
