I don't think so.


Blakeney shot nearly 36% from three his sophomore year of college. By comparison Stephen Curry shot 38% his junior year at Davidson, Klay Thompson shot 36% his sophomore year at Washington State,CJ McCollum shot 34% his junior year at Lehigh, and Damian Lillard shot 34% his sophomore year at Weber State. Understand that people who are already good shooters in college BECOME BETTER SHOOTERS IN THE NBA. The coaching is better and the spacing on the floor is better.

All that stat looking up is worthless. Name another player on Curry's team at Davidson, or Lillard for Weber State, or McCullum at Lehigh. Those dudes had Box and 1 defenses thrown at them. Over half of their 3-point attempts were from NBA range because that was the only way they could get a clean look. On top of that, they were asked to shoot 25 times a game.

Also, they have much, much more time to get repetitions and hone their craft. One much isn't enough to explain that.

Exactly. Some "fans" just like to shite on former players just because.
