He was similar when 5th in usage at MN the previous season. He actually took more 3P per game that year, shooting 25% rather than the 24% this season.
But reducing his role will be good. You can much more easily overcome your 5th guy struggling than your 3rd usage and top 3PA guy
However, what lineup do we have that facilitates that?
Williams, AJG, Gabe, Kunc, Ward likely means similar or greater need for Gabe scoring. AJG may be at IBs load level, but Williams being Hunter’s volume questionable. I don’t see Ward having Conditt’s assist rate.
With AJG, Holmes, Gabe, Kunc, Ward you may be similar to last year for Gabe, but not a reduction. Holmes will need to regain his shot.
We need Basile so that we have another scoring option Imo. Then AJG, Holmes, Basile would be 1st-3rd options when Gabe is on the floor. Will Watson be ready to play some 4, then moving Kunc to the to reduce the need for Gabe to shoot? When King is back, I'd hope some load is shifted to him, assuming he can be a guy you run offense through.
