The entire Magic defense thought Klay Thompson was going to go up to the rim with his left hand. But at the last moment, the Warriors guard threw the ball over his shoulder to find Trayce Jackson-Davis. A beautiful offering.
This is one action among others that illustrates the link in the game existing between the two men. He's a very good guy, I'll miss him a lot “, regrets the interior today in reference to the departure of his playing partner.
” We had great synergy on the court and we played really well together. It's going to be different. I feel like I excelled in the pick-and-roll. Klay obviously attracted two (defenders) when he had the ball, but we have another guy on the team who does that very well in Steph Curry. ” recalls Trayce Jackson-Davis, who was invited to a restaurant in Las Vegas by Klay Thompson when he and Brandin Podziemski were drafted.
The young Warriors center will also no longer be able to count on the passing quality of Chris Paul, whose adventure with the Warriors has also ended. To best digest the departure of these two men, the center intends to spend his summer developing his game, with the aim of no longer being just a threat on lobbed passes.
Warriors Summer League coach Anthony Vereen also challenges him to be able to maintain his commitment to the game over longer stretches: “ Can you maintain that level of intensity the entire time? Can you run in transition, get easy baskets and protect the rim for 30 minutes, instead of just 15 or 20 minutes? »
Trayce Jackson-Davis, who averaged 17 minutes last season, still intends to ask for tips from Kevon Looney, who remains in San Francisco. The rookie had also supplanted him in the Warriors' starting five.
