New Brooklyn Net Ziaire Williams appreciates Memphis Grizzlies assistant coach Anthony Carter for helping him improve as a shooter (career-high 66.7% 3-PT through four games).
(via Brooklyn Nets):
“I started last year actually, Anthony Carter from Memphis was the first person who taught me how to hop into a shot, instead of 1, 2. That’s allowed me to get a lot more momentum and flow. Shoot, I thank God for him every day, because I really feel like he honestly somewhat saved my shot a little bit for sure. Just consistently getting that base and that momentum to flow, and I’ve just been rolling with it ever since. My summer trainer: Joe Abunassar, Chris Johnson. And then now with Connor [Griffin] and the rest of the Brooklyn Nets guys, I’ve kinda just translated that over a little bit. But it feels good right now, just trusting my work and living with the results, man.”
