I remember people thought Facey was going to be a stretch 4 cause he hit two 3's as a freshman. Then their was a video of him hitting five in a row shooting around.

I think in four years of high school he is over 50% from three on a decent volume.

He had a bad summer shooting last summer though.

The question is whether he shot poorly in AAU bc of the competition, the style of play, the volume of games or just had a bad AAU.

His high school stats (and eye test) show he has good form, AAU calls into question his ability to get his shot off from three at a good percentage against top competition. I think we can at least be pretty confident defenders can't leave him alone on the outside.

Are we looking for him to be a shooter? I don't think so
I think KO is looking for him to control the ball, tempo and find the best option FIRST
I think KO wants him to be a scorer - all evidence leads to him filling that role
Being able to hit a 3 is a bonus
This team cries for a pure PG

All due respect, he's no Dave Wingett. Wingett shot 89% from 3, averaged 57 points a game, and fathered 37% of all infants born in Nebraska over the past 3 years.

Which works out to approximately 23,400 infants. That kid can really fill it up. Somewhere, Antonio Cromartie is nodding in respect.

He's going to be freshman PG, we know what that means and what comes with it.

Hopefully we don't kill the kid around here. Everyone needs to remember what Kemba, Shabazz, etc were like as freshman.

Can't be said enough. People said Adams was going to be the best player on the floor from day 1. And he was not. Figured things out towards the end of the year, but PGs take time.
