He has decent form and isn’t afraid to take that shot. I don’t consider the number of shots he‘s taken in games a fair sample size.
It's something he feels comfortable doing and the staff feels comfortable having him do.
Which is to say, we will see what the results look like at greater volume, but in terms of Hansberry's role on the team, taking perimeter shots clearly appears to be part of it.
When Hansberry arrived in Champaign to begin his freshman year he was 18 years old, competing for his role and position with a 24 year old veteran of two countries, two languages, two other major conferences, and 131 previous college games.
Hansberry will be a year older and more Fletch-ified, and the days of grown men like Guerrier in college basketball will soon recede.
(Btw, a not nice finish to Guerrier's very nice 169 game college career last night. 12 more than anyone in the history of the NCAA prior to Covid.)
