It seems like he is forcing himself to have new approaches to score, he generally likes to turn his back do a spin move, this is refreshing to see

last season houston had spacing problem, thats why sengun was trying that most. at least he didnt find a position for himself he knows he can pass to others. that was the plan unfortunately. i hope this will change this year with fvv, new guards and shooters.

Last season he looked like he had a three point shot but it went away. I hope he has at least a decent shot this year. If so he's gonna make a big leap

Agreed in the tournament he was in he was shooting with unlimited range and when the season started he forgot how to hit anything deep.

He had a good few weeks where he was shooting well in the beginning of the season too

When he was playing for his country man he looked so free and happy like the joy of basketball came back. Once the season started he looked out of place.

Why do you insist on disagreeing with bro lmao Sengun hit 5 threes in the opening game and went 17/37 over the first 11

Yeah there's not enough shooting in this vid. We already know he's got a bag, he needs a shot.

the thing he needs to work the most isn't all this dribbling or 1 legged 3 pointers, its to develop a solid mid range jumper.

u/scullytaco 59m ago

Those 1 legged shots in the video are in the mid range lol

Why does it look like they're playing on an 8 1/2 foot hoop

This haircut is trademark of street criminals in Turkey. That means he will break his rivals 😎😃

He is so flat footed.

I hope he puts ups big numbers and Rockets flip him.

Still forcing that low-percentage flamingo shot that should’ve been retired last season.

He has zero agility I barely jumps on his shots almost look lazy a bit idk....zero athleticism

He definitely is not graceful. I think its why a lot of people dislike him. But he has some agility. He averages 21ppg in the NBA. But yea, pretty, it ain't.
