It still blows my mind that exactly one year ago at this time, no one and I mean NO ONE had a clue at that moment that 365 days later this is where Keaton would be in his life.

I'm just so tickled to death to see the path that life has taken Keaton down. It's really awesome!

Hopefully Keaton can get it going

Doesn’t look like a good game for Keaton.

6pts, 1-8 FG, 1-7 3pt.

Wagler goes 1-11 from 3, but plays 30 minutes and Clippers get the W.

Game winning shot

Keaton hit the go ahead bucket with 14 seconds left too. Have been liking the amount of trust the Clippers have in him

There's only one other guy in the NBA that can go 1-10 from 3 and still be allowed to shoot an 11th

He may not have shot well, but he still snagged 6 boards, 3 assists, 2 steals and a block. Still impacting the game even if the shot isn't falling.

The shot will come. He'll probably have a game (Multiple) where he hits 4-5+ threes.

They said he was playing good defense as well.

And zero turnovers, another encouraging statistic.

He changes his hair too often, which leads to variation in 3 point shooting.

At Illinois, his 3 point percentage was 44.4% before cutting the hair.

His 3 point percentage dropped to 32.6% after cutting the hair.

I am still debating whether to buy an NBA Pass this year just to watch Clippers games. I rarely watch NBA games anymore, but I think I would enjoy following Wagler's career from the start. Do I really want to invest in the Clippers though, especially considering the mess they are in for the foreseeable future?
