WTF happened to Kyle Anderson’s shot form since high school? Should he start shooting lefty?



So I couldn’t sleep and was looking at some Kyle Anderson high school highlights, and I couldn’t help but notice that his shot form looks so much smoother than it does now.

For reference…

How the heck does that even happen?

Also, when the Wolves played the Blazers in February, Slo-Mo put up this lefty three pointer during a timeout, and I feel like this looks smoother and better than his real shot form. I know this sounds super crazy, but should he change his shooting hand? Because yikes.

    It does look better but his jumper in HS still looks like one that could use some work. I wouldn’t be surprised if some adjustments went poorly similar to Fultz.

    Edit: looked at his current shot again, I can’t explain how it could get to that point. It’s shockingly bad and I’m surprised every time I see it.

    Damn, I could fix that shot in about three sessions. All that money and nobody has fixed this clunky shot? I can see what he’s doing, he’s really concentrating on the form, but the rhythm is shot to hell, no pun intended. The Wolves need to get Trent Tucker or bring in Ray Allen to help him, pure shooters. KA is a really good dude, I would love to see him have a longer career.

  3. His lefty shot is a secret technique that he’ll only reveal in the finals. He will shoot the slowest game winner of all time.

    We only got a sneak peek this season.

    I heard an interview where he said he’d a serious injury and basically had to learn to shoot in a different way because of it.
