Minnesota Timberwolves: Jarrett Culver's improved shooting is not a fluke

On the season, Minnesota Timberwolves rookie Jarrett Culver averaged 9.2 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.7 assists.

While these are lackluster numbers, the biggest concern is Culver’s pitiful shooting numbers. Culver made just 40.4 percent of his attempts from the field, 29.9 percent from beyond the arc, and a despicable 46.2 percent from the line fourth-worst in the league.

There were flashes of promise earlier in the season from Culver, but his play tended to present more questions than answers. Not all of this can be attributed to Culver as a player, however. To say the Timberwolves had a tumultuous season not ideal for a rookie is putting it lightly.
