Korner3He's earned the spot (3rd Center). CJM needs to continue to throw him rotational minutes against opposing bench players
Would love to see him launch a few 3s, if he is left wide open for a Corner3.

While his wingspan is smaller, he has a longer standing reach than Timelord. He starts from a good spot just by getting his hands up high.I actually think he gets off the ground pretty easily for a player his height. His lack of athleticism is more apparent when he is asked to cover space quickly on the perimeter.
Probably this?Kornet did shoot 36 percent from three on 4.1 per game over two seasons in the far back of the Knicks rotation in 17 mpg over 66 games when he first entered the league. If he does add the three that would gave the Cs three floor stretching centers. I remember reading somewhere they he purposely remade his game (pick setter, rim runner, rim defender) to find a spot in the league, eschewing the three ball.
Given the Luke can get minimum money from the Cs any time, why wouldn't he test the market this summer and see whether anyone is feeling silly?One of the side benefits of being careful with KP and shrink-wapping Al/KP in B2Bs is developing your own fungible 3rd string Center.
Brad should just give Luke an extension, he probably isn't looking for much more than a minimum guaranteed for multiple seasons (~3yrs/$10MM)
$10MM gtd to be a goofball in Boston, securing his future broadcasting career as he plays National TV games weekly (I'm not even sure if Brad is allowed to extend him anyway, there may be rules that prohibit that since he just was gtd)Given the Luke can get minimum money from the Cs any time, why wouldn't he test the market this summer and see whether anyone is feeling silly?
Could easily see Kornet replacing Scalabrine in that seat for entertainment value.$10MM gtd to be a goofball in Boston, securing his future broadcasting career as he plays National TV games weekly
The team basketball-reference.com page, under shooting, tracks this. 40.3 percent of his attempts so far are dunks. (https://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/BOS/2024.html)I’m sure there’s no way to track this but it seems like the majority of Kornets baskets are dunks.
Very close. He has 47 dunks made, and 49 made layups+hook shots. This link should work?I’m sure there’s no way to track this but it seems like the majority of Kornets baskets are dunks.

Can you imagine Kornet with Drew Carter doing the Cs broadcasts? My guess that it would be really good but even it were bad, it would be so spectacularly bad, it would be TV gold.Kornet is the most relatable NBA player for me. I feel like I would want to conduct myself exactly as he does in terms of comments and dry humor if I stumbled into a relatively memorable NBA career as a back-up big.
He needs to have a standing interview slot. After the Suns game in PHX, he dropped a “the eclipse was made for the sun.”Gotta credit the man for this line:

Luke has to be watching Tillman clank Corner3s and saying to himself "damn, I can do better than that"I'm waiting for Kornet to emerge as a stretch big in a meaningful playoff game. I think him not shooting threes for the past several years has been a long con
I figured Luke's comment to Bobby Manning was dripping with sarcasmDidn't @RorschachsMask say that Luke had an injury at some point that affected his 3-point shot?
