Message: [QUOTE="Cheriehoop, post: 2956501, member: 127"] Barrett is a volume shooter averaging seven 3 point attempts/game with only a .310 percentage. He averages 19 shots a game despite not being an elite shooter. Barrett is better inside the arc(.532) and has good assist numbers with 4.2 assists but a poor free throw shooter 66% (again not a good shooter) and turns it over way too much. (3.2/game) . Barrett is an excellent elite rebounder 7.5 playing guard forward at Duke. He leads the ACC in scoring not because of his efficiency but because of volume. Cam Reddish is inconsistent and hasn’t displayed good, less elite shooting his freshman year. He takes an average of 13 shots per game with 8 from the 3 point line. He’s not an effective slasher (.356 inside the arc) and barely adequate but far from elite 3 point shooter (.329). Compare with SU’s Hughes who is also inconsistent but a much better and efficient inside and outside scorer. Hughes takes less shots (11 per game), shooting .529 inside the arc and .362 from 3. Reddish also turns it over more averaging 3 turnovers a game vs 1.8 for Hughes. Hughes is even a slightly better rebounder (4.4 per game vs 3.7 for the 2 inch taller Reddish). Reddish has a way to go to show he’s NBA ready. I’m surprised Coach K hasn’t reigned in the volume and quality of shots Reddish and Barrett take. Their shot efficiency especially at the 3 point line will bite them at some point unless they run the offense through Zion more and create more for O’Connell their best 3 point shooter. Barrett takes the most shots for Duke (19) while Reddish and Zion average the same number of shots(13.5). Not an efficient distribution nor balanced number of shots. [/QUOTE]
