Of note: "Charlie Villanueva’s performance this season epitomized that of a pure three-point shooter. Whenever he stepped onto the floor, his job was simple: Shoot the ball..."

More than 60 percent of Villanueva’s field goal attempts this season came from beyond the three-point line. Seventy-six percent of his shots came without taking a dribble, per NBA.com, and a whopping 88 percent came after touching the ball for fewer than two seconds.

He's an unrestricted free agent this summer. And despite turning 31 later this year, he's cultivated a skill (3-point-shooting) that ages well, so expect some interest from teams that want to stretch the floor from the four spot.

Is it bad it keeps slipping my mind he's still around?

Not good or bad. But the more UConn players in the NBA the better our brand with recruits.

He came into UCONN as a 3. Also, on first night he always won the 3 point shot contest.

Hmm, would be an excellent cheap get for the Knicks and would fit into the triangle perfectly just setting up behing the 3 point line and knocking down shots when left open. On the flipside anyone that goes to NY turns to ISH, and I dont wish that for him. smh... I think he'd be a good fit there though.
