It isn’t only that the Brooklyn Nets rescued Quincy Acy from potential NBA obscurity, but the confidence Kenny Atkinson bestows upon his newly converted stretch-4 is inspiring.
Acy would say so. It’s probably why he was hard on himself after putting up a donut in 17 minutes of play while the Nets defeated the Orlando Magic on Monday.
Atkinson spoke about that performance Wednesday before the Nets beat the Minnesota Timberwolves, continuing his theme of exuding confidence in Acy, who’s adjusting to his new role.
