"Coach Darvin Ham's Ambitious Plan: Anthony Davis'3-Point Revolution" #shorts #short #youtubeshorts
In a bold and decisive move, Los Angeles Lakers coach Darvin Ham is unwavering in his determination to transform Anthony Davis into a formidable 3-point threat for the upcoming season. "I want him to aim for six 3-point attempts a game, or at least three per half. I know it might sound ambitious, but maybe he'll surprise us," Ham declared during a recent practice session. "I wouldn't place this expectation on him if I didn't firmly believe he has the potential." Thus far, Anthony Davis seems to be heeding his coach's call, displaying a newfound proficiency from beyond the arc during the Lakers' two preseason matchups against the Golden State Warriors and Brooklyn Nets. In those games, he connected on 3 of 6 three-point attempts in a total of 27 minutes on the court. This represents a substantial increase in Davis's 3-point shooting, especially when compared to his meager 1.3 attempts per game from the previous season. The highest average he's ever achieved in a season was 3.5 attempts back in 2019-20, his inaugural season with the Lakers. For context, last season, All-Star guards Darius Garland and Devin Booker each averaged a remarkable 6.0 three-point attempts per game. Among players who predominantly occupy power forward or center positions and consistently launch at least that many threes were Julius Randle (8.3) and Lauri Markkanen (7.7). During the offseason, Anthony Davis dedicated substantial time to honing his outside shot in collaboration with Lakers assistant coach Chris Jent. This intensive training follows Davis's modest 25.7% 3-point shooting performance in the 2022-23 regular season, which improved to 33.3% during the playoffs. "When asked about his progress on the outside shot during the Lakers' annual media day last week, Davis explained, "I'm focused on becoming a threat at all three levels. It's challenging to gauge my progress until we engage in practices and games. Shooting in controlled workout settings is one thing; performing under the pressure of live competition is another." A more consistent jump shot is a welcome prospect for Davis, who has grappled with inconsistency in long-range shooting since the Lakers' championship-winning campaign in the bubble in 2020. During that memorable postseason run, Davis maintained an impressive effective field goal percentage of 53 on 162 jump shots, surpassing the league's playoff average for the same year. However, since that outstanding performance, Davis's effectiveness in jump shooting has plummeted, boasting an underwhelming 38% effective field goal percentage in both regular season and playoff play. This places him at the very bottom of a list comprising 245 players with a minimum of 500 jump shot attempts over the past three seasons, as per ESPN Stats & Information. The consequences of Davis's struggles from the outside have been reflected in the Lakers' overall performance, with the team ranking poorly in 3-point shooting percentage in recent seasons. Over the course of two preseason games, the Lakers have shown improvement as a team in their 3-point shooting, connecting on 35 of 93 attempts for an impressive 37.6%. Davis himself remains positive about the shift towards a greater emphasis on 3-point shooting. "We've been emphasizing taking more 3s, which aligns with the league's evolving style of play that heavily emphasizes three-pointers," he shared with reporters following the game against the Brooklyn Nets. "But we're not forcing it; all our shots came within the flow of the game. We just want to be confident in our shooting and let it fly." Coach Ham intends to persist in motivating Anthony Davis to unleash his 3-point prowess when the regular season commences on October 24 against the reigning champions, the Denver Nuggets. "Anthony has worked diligently on becoming a more consistent shooter, particularly from long range. The key is to shoot without hesitation, without overthinking it. If he has a good look, we've all encouraged him to take the shot," Ham affirmed with unwavering faith in his star player's potential.

With persistent rainfall at Colombo it has become very hard for the organizers to fit in matches amidst a packed schedule. India originally had a day off between their fixtures against Pakistan and Sri Lanka. But the reserve day mode activation out of nowhere for the particular match against their arch-rivals Pakistan India now have to play intense cricket on three consecutive days. However the reserve day was offered for this one game was in agreement with all the boards taking part in the Super Fours stage of the Asia Cup 2023. So just 16 hours after sinking Pakistan Men in Blue go head-to-head against the co-hosts Sri Lanka who are a 13-match winning streak at R.Premadasa Stadium (RPS) in Colombo. Everyone expected Indian batters especially top-order would bounce against Pakistani pacers what transpired in group stage. Probably not. Rohit and Shubman teared off the new ball effect with superb half-centuries providing a flying start after being asked to bat first. A proper downpour had it's control over the proceedings for a long time and it was not a straight resumption on the reserve day either. But the concentration and determination of Kohli and comeback man Rahul was such that they just batted and batted to leave Pakistan pondering around. Rahul made full use of the advantage after replacing Shreyas Iyer in the XI who had suffered from a back spasm just before the start and announced his return with pointing the bat to the heavens. King Kohli orchestrated an excellent ton his fourth in straight innings' at RPS and kept punching at Babar Azam and co. with an unbeaten partnership of 233 runs alongside KL Rahul to post a mammoth 356 runs on the board. Jasprit Bumrah bowled for the first time in this Asia Cup and moved the ball both ways and made the Pakistani openers to dance to his music getting a brilliant support from Siraj. Hardik Pandya and Shardul Thakur as well got the movements and bowled fantastic nuts to dismiss Babar Azam and Rizwan respectively before Kuldeep Yadav's (8-0-25-5) spin magic came into the fore and floored down Pakistan completely. India's win by 228 runs was their 4th biggest in ODIs and overall 4th biggest in the Asia Cup. Recovery is the key for the players with continuous games coming up including the mega event the World Cup. The team management might persist with the winning XI a game at least but there is a possibility of rotating some of the players especially the fast bowlers. Sri Lanka have been able to catch the crucial moments and managed to win 13 ODI matches on the bounce. They are just behind Australia's 21 consecutive victories which is the longest-ever winning streak in this format. It is not that Sri Lanka have the full strength at the moment. Four main stream bowlers- Wanindu Hasaranga Dushmantha Chameera Kumara and Dilshan Madushanka are out due to respective injuries. But on a good note that all of these bowlers are seen practicing in the nets which is a really good news for the Lankan Board. The Lankan Lions got through the Group B as the toppers but not before facing a scare against Afghanistan. But the confidence arises from their two good wins against Bangladesh in what is termed as a 'Naagin Derby'. A few starts in the top order with Mendis getting to another ODI fifty Sri Lanka looked to had control of their first Super Four game against Bangladesh before the pace trio of Taskin Shoriful Mahmud pegged the co-hosts back with regular wickets.
