[QUOTE="ChiefGritty, post: 2014299, member: 746137"] Very true, and it's not just a question of banking that extra point, a player's threat to bury 3's dramatically affects the way they get guarded, which dictates their whole offensive game, especially for a guard. THT and Ayo are both really complete two-way players with high basketball IQ's. But yeah, if it's Ayo that becomes a knockdown shooter, he is going to have the stronger NBA career. Ayo is very rarely the longer player in an NBA context, which was part of the reason for the suspicion of him in the draft. Trae Young is a matchup where Ayo does have a length advantage, and you're gonna have a real bad night when that's the case, Ayo gets to do the stuff he was shredding the Big Ten with again. [/QUOTE]
