Bunyama s new brain : Harper makes Spurs offense smoother

Harper only played 3 preseason games, and he showed his potential on the organizational and defensive ends. He averaged 8.7 points, 0.7 rebounds, 4.7 assists and 1 steal per game, shooting 49% from the field and 44% from the three-point range (five attempts). He played 18 minutes as a substitute in his debut, scoring 9 points, 3 assists and 0 turnovers on 4-of-6 shooting, with a plus-minus value of +20. Shows maturity on the court without feeling like a frizzy rookie.

He is not fast, but his sudden acceleration is very fast, and his finishing ability is also good

Although he did not take many shots in the preseason, he proved that he is a three-point threat

What surprised everyone the most was: passing, which is also the most praiseworthy point. His passing connected the team very well, and he found his teammates in time in some moments.

Holding the ball at the top of the arc, he found an open space in the right corner

Alley-oop to the basket

After the pick-and-roll, a 45-degree vacancy was found

After a breakthrough, a vacancy was found in the corner (same passing perspective, same passing point)

The Spurs' team basketball style is highly consistent with Harper's technical characteristics Not only can he handle the ball after the pick-and-roll, he can also find open spaces during the breakthrough process and pass the ball to the right person in time. If Fox is more inclined to attack, Harper is more inclined to handle the ball and connect in series. I hope the two can run in well in the new season and turn the Spurs' backcourt into a left-handed double gun. This will not only improve the Spurs' immediate combat effectiveness, but also make Wenbanyama more comfortable.

What do you think his performance will be next season?
