If he could become a Channing Frye type player, that'd be great. I haven't seen him make a whole lot of contested outside shots. He doesn't have a jump shot, but a bit more of a set shot with a very slow release. It works for him, but his release and arc look a bit goofy to me. I think he can hit the open outside shot for sure, and maybe that'll be enough with other offensive players around him. Time will tell. I'll certainly be pulling for him.
I'm going to disagree with you there -- it is 100% a jump shot, not a set shot.
Looks like he also has pretty good footwork, albeit in drills from the footage just shown.
Not sure why you seem so hung up on him showing a dribble drive game -- how many fives make lots of plays off of the dribble, creating offensive for themselves?
