Speak for yourself.  All season long, I've cringed every time he's pulled up a foot inside the arc, or stepped back with a defender in his face to take an 18 footer instead of what began as a 14 footer, only to be surprised when he routinely cans that shot even with a hand in his face.  That observation is not just based upon the Duke game, and the data supports my contention.

The following breakdown for Tyus is from January 14, 2019:

Other than the left elbow extended, he shoots at what is classified as an above average clip from within 2 feet inside the three point line. It isn't an anecdotal observation -- the data bears it out.

Pay special attention to the shot volume data.

He's actually really good from mid-range, too--better than I gave him credit for--with the exception similarity of that cone extending from the left diagonal--clearly, not his spot on the floor.  The coaching staff should use data like this to help him reduce taking shots from that area -- but otherwise, he's been strong taking DEEP shots just inside the three point line.
