His forte should be driving to the rim as part of a PnR tandem, but if even shooting FTs (sort of a basic skill, I don't know why so many "pros" are bad at it) gets out of his comfort zone, then I don't know how he's playable.
No doubt his defense is exceptional, but if every game becomes a defensive wrestling match I don't think we'll have to worry long about what Luka's going to do.
Actually, I posted that yesterday...just so we know...but it's not too original of a thought.

And Giannis had to develop a 3 point shot BECAUSE of that very reason.
