[Gordon] Looney emphasized improving his 3-point shot this summer. Said he trained at UCLA, shooting between 400 and 500 per day. Won’t be hunting shots, but knows being a factor offensively — and making catch-and-shoot 3-pointers — could extend his career.

Looney doing pick and pop with Steph, then running for rebound when he misses
If it wasn’t Looney I would call BS. But considering Looney already had to change his game because of his injuries and carved out a significant role for himself – I actually have hope lol.
Not expecting him to be a stretch big. But taking and making a couple will add some needed versatility.
this continues to be the most surprising storyline of the summer
I’m still not putting much into it for the simple fact that unless he’s comfortably eclipsing 2 3PA / game, it simply won’t matter. But if seriously comes out here and starts firing up shots when defenses are just ignoring him… that will be crazy.
if either looney or tjd could be a stretch big it could really help the spacing for lineups w draymond/kuminga. not holding out hope but it would be dope
Go back to his college tape, dude can shoot if he’s really putting work in.
Loondog 50/40/90 season incoming
Everybody gangster until Kevon Looney starts drilling threes
Looney going back to high school looonn
Imagine if Loony becomes a stretch big and still rebounds the ball like he can. 🤯
His first NBA basket was a 3. I remember being excited that we drafted him since he also went to UCLA.
What a waste of breathe
Doing anything 400-500 times a day, prob 5 times a week, for 5 months is surely enough to claim at least basic proficiency. Not asking him to take hesi pullup jimbos. If Looney can even shoot like 32% on *wide open* threes, the offense will open up.
If Looney could shoot 2 a game and make 36% that’d be cool.
Imagine if both Looney and Draymond started sinking 3’s at a respectable rate. It would blow the leagues minds.
He needs to be be atleast 30 %

Never mind 3s, can Looney practice on his GD Free Throws ☠️☠️
In 22 they played Looney off the floor a couple times doing hack-a-looney, dude needs to be able to at least hit like 70%
What if the whole team shoots 40% from 3
