Of course, all that isn’t to say that Morant doesn’t have actual basketball skills. He does, obviously, and they’re another major contributing factor as to why Morant has become such a draft darling.
Other than how eye-popping they are, those numbers speak to the level of feel Morant has for the game already. Yes, he can physically dominate with his athleticism, but he allows the game to come to him and never forces things as he’s adept at playing at almost any speed, in both transition and in the half-court and in set-play situations or not.
The only knock against Morant from a skills standpoint at the moment is his three-point stroke. He only shot 33.6 per cent from the college three this season, taking 4.8 per game. This will have to improve at the next level, but seeing as he shot over 50 per cent from the field in general and got to the free-throw line more than eight times per game this season as well, there is some positive self-awareness on Morant’s part of what he’s actual best at.
