This is the skill Scottie needs, much more than being a good 3 point shooter. That’s not to say his shooting improving wouldn’t help the team, but it’s not the step that’s most important to his game.
Scottie is an athletic freak. When he gets moving downhill there’s little the defence can do to stop him. If his handle has improved, which it looked like it did in that game, then coming off of screens, or even off the dribble, he should be able to get to the rim regularly.
This is where Scottie’s next level comes from.

That’s true. It leverages his athleticism much better

Yup. Once that handle is down, he could be like a Giannis-lite with his size and power.

What no one is talking about is how it seemed as though he wasn’t limping around at all. Last year it always seemed like he was gassed and limping around. I hope this continues, as it seems a lot of his strength comes when he’s got stamina.

It comes down to the handle because that will enable him to get to his shot easier.
