Who says Steven Adams can’t be a floor spacer for the New Orleans Pelicans?

The center, who was traded by the Oklahoma City Thunder to the Pelicans, according to reports late Friday night, has limitless range.

At least, he does at the Smoothie King Center — the home of his new team.

Adams has made exactly one 3-pointer in his NBA career. It was a half-court shot at the Smoothie King Center on Feb. 13 of last season, and it was just about the most casual heave you’ve seen.

Seconds before halftime, Adams inbounded the ball to Chris Paul, who passed it back to Adams. The center flipped it up from the other side of the court.

If you watch the replay, it looks like he took a little power off as he flicked it toward the rim. It was like tossing paper into a waste basket, and he held the follow-through.

He ended it with a little shimmy a la Steph Curry.

What we’re saying is that Adams may or may not comparable to the greatest shooter in the game, but only when he takes his shot from half court at Smoothie King Center.

Luckily for him and the Pelicans, he’ll play there 36 times next season.
