“Keaton Wagler started great with his first quarter. He was under control and calm, consistently driving and kicking to find open teammates. He had four assists in his first four minutes on the court, and drew a foul to get to the line. The rest of the game was pretty rough as the Warriors amped up the defensive pressure. He wasn't quite able to consistently get downhill yet, and the time that he did he smoked a layup off of an average contest. Beyond that, his jumper looks a bit out of rhythm right now compared to where it was at Illinois. Maybe it's just the adjustment to the speed of the NBA, or maybe it's that he added a lot of weight and is still recalibrating the strength he needs to put into each shot. We knew there would be an adjustment period for Wagler, though. His feel stood out quite positively in this game even though he struggled to shoot it.“

Keaton's back to back air ball and brick from 3 were the two worst shots I have ever seen from him.
