Hes never taken a three and has no indicators that he can make them over his whole career.

People showcasing NBA talent-level guys like Horford or J Dub don't do anything for me as it pertains to Lampkin. Horford might end up in the HoF. J Dub was an all american and a first round draft pick. Lampkin isn't close to them.

Again, zero threes taken. No stats that would give an indication that he can do it. And he's a fifth year senior.

Want to hope for it? Sure. I do stuff like this all the time because I'm a big fan. But there is a reason JB (who I was hard on in his later years) used to shut this stuff down and it's because he knew the value of each possession.

And, I don't look at our roster right now and think we have the luxury of having Lampkin try to audition for the NBA (which is what this is) when he will not make the NBA and screw us in the process.

The guy should be working on his switchability on defense (because he's going to be put into a blender) and his ability to set and re-set picks and handle the short roll on offense. I get he can make buckets close to the basket. Great.
