Second-year wing Terrence Shannon Jr. is undoubtedly poised for a bigger role this upcoming season. TSJ showcased his impressive three-level scoring abilities during his limited minutes as a rookie, including in the playoffs. This impressive play continued in the NBA Summer League, where Shannon averaged 22.7 points. He also showed more playmaking chops in summer league, averaging 5 assists.
With elite athleticism, Shannon thrives as a transition scorer, and his ability to create shots benefits him in the half-court. This, paired with his high energy on the defensive end of the floor, makes him an ideal replacement for Nickeil Alexander-Walker.
