The Story in 60 Seconds

Writer Dalton Sell argues that Milwaukee Bucks rookie guard Brayden Burries could accelerate his path to stardom if his jump shot improves. Burries has excelled under Coach Taylor Jenkins, averaging 13 points and 8.3 rebounds per game since joining the starting lineup, but he has converted just 35.1 percent of his jump shots and 22.2 percent from 3-point range.

Sell highlights that Burries demonstrated strong perimeter shooting at Arizona, where he converted 39.1 percent from distance. Sell notes that Burries has struggled with open look conversions early this season but believes the rookie's scoring will rise as those attempts begin to fall.
