Chris Boucher right now is averaging 15.4 minutes per game, compared to precious’s 18.2. Is shooting .47 from the field, and is 13-29 from 3 (≈.45). His paint defense has also been impressive, with the only glaring weakness in his game appearing to be his perimeter D.
With siakam consistently getting open looks when scottie drives to the paint, it makes sense that boucher would also get those open looks, and thus far, he has been making them. If scottie and siakam continue to fail to mesh, I think introducing boucher to a larger role only makes sense for the raps.
I do not envy Darko man.
Boucher and Precious combined have the same cumulative BBall experience and IQ as a D1 College Senior. So, not much! Chris can’t defend centers like Precious. And with Koloko out, I guess Darko has no choice. It’s rough man.
