Sweet profile on the JYD. With an assist to Quin Snyder. Yup.
"There isn't a player in the league who has had more fun coming into his offensive game. It started with Quin Snyder in 2013, when he was a Hawks assistant.
"The first thing he said to me was, 'Has anyone ever worked with you on your footwork?'" Carroll said. "The first drill was pivoting. He just had me out there with the ball, moving around, left foot, moving around, right foot. To a normal individual, it seemed stupid. You're in the NBA. But then I realized, everything is footwork. I didn't know how important footwork is for your shot, catching the ball, being on balance, pivoting after the catch."
