So, wow, a lot has happened in NBA free agency so far. You may have been a little angry about swapping Lance for Doug McDermott but I bet that anger has been replaced now, right?
Anyway, let’s roll it back and look at what the new guy might be able to bring to Indy.
McDermott shot an unbelievable 49% from three in his 26 games with the Dallas Mavericks, which when coupled with his performance in New York still gave him the best shooting year of his career to-date. His Effective Field Goal Percentage was also up significantly this past season, so this seems to be the main reasoning behind the signing of “McBuckets”, as he was affectionately known by at Creighton.
