With Iman Shumpert now in the Rockets’ fold, he becomes the newest focus of the “New Faces” series.
To get more insight, we spoke to Tony Xypteras from Sactown Royalty. Thank you Tony for participating.
1. What is Shumpert’s biggest strength?
Tony Xypteras, Sactown Royalty: Leadership, and the Kings needed it desperately. I cannot speak highly enough about how Iman Shumpert changed the dynamic inside the Kings locker room. Of course, the Kings are an extremely young and impressionable team so the leadership role he played in Sacramento probably won’t have the same impact on a playoff tested, veteran team like the Rockets, but he’s a great chemistry piece regardless.
