Boston Celtics sharpshooting forward Grant Williams famously had a rough start to his NBA career from 3-point range. In fact, it was such a bad start it was nearly historic for all the wrong reasons.
But since that uncharacteristically cold start from beyond the arc, the Charlotte native has since transformed his game to become one of the NBA’s most reliable 3-point shooters, hitting 41.1% from deep in 2021-22. Still, his game has been relatively predictable, with most of his treys coming to him in areas of the floor he has been comfortable shooting it while open. In a recent interview by Heavy’s Jack Simone, Williams shared what he planned to work on this offseason, with his long-distance shot at the top of the list.
“Shooting on the move,” said the former Vol without hesitation in response to what his offseason development focus would be. “That’s the big one.”
In this episode, we take stock of Boston’s embarrassment of riches when it comes to the players they can put on the floor together. https://t.co/t32s6qcBWQ
