3pt shooting was not a great strength when he was playing in Europe. Fixable tho

The one drawback of Egor’s game is he seemingly has zero confidence in his shot.

The question with him is how he handles physical pressure

This what I’ve noticed. Opposing Teams seem to have noticed this too

You knew it was coming. And so far it's thrown him off of his game

I don't think he has zero confidence, he just isn't making them enough. 2 for 21

He's got a great stroke. Seems like it will really click at some point.

He shot great in the first 5 games vs cupcakes (29/45 and 13/23 from 3)

When you're 6'9" with handles and can pass, you should be taking it to the hole

I think if he is more aggressive looking to score he will shoot better, and his
