If you listen to his coaches and interviews with Nate, he is there to run the offense, not score 30 per game. His shot will come, give the guy time.
    I had no idea. Thank you for letting me know.

      Reps. Its the first few games of his rookie season. Yeah he might not be draining it from 3 but when you lead the league in assist-turnover ratio you must be doing something right. I will wait to pass judgement on his bad shooting if it continues later this season. Not gonna freak out over the first month.

          It's not like the NBA 3pt line is farther out than in college or anything like that...

            I'm just glad we got away from the discussion of Duke basketball.

              I believe the team as a whole are shooting poorly. Under 40% the past two games. Some of that may have to do with tired legs, that includes Nate. Four games in five nights playing 7 - 8 guys will do that to you in the NBA.

                Nate Wolters fg % is 2nd among rookie pgs and 11th overall. Does his 3pt shooting need some work? Yes, but I'm not freaking out about it at all. He's a rookie less than 10 games into his young career

                  The Bucks offense just isn't real good. And the injuries aren't helping that either. Nate is being asked to run the offense, not score 20 ppg. I would say that's Mayo's job, but he has to shoot a ton to get that.

                  I've have no beef with his play. I'm thrilled to see he's playing this much.

                    Nate Wolters


                    The floater has given him a handful of baskets off the dribble, but he’s largely struggled whether driving or spotting up. The the outside shot isn’t there yet either.
                    Wolters also has a good sense of timing on when to make a backdoor cut.

                      Nate ranks 3rd in the most recent rookie ladder only behind MCW and Oladipo.

                                Nate's shot will come around. You don't go to the gym and put up shots as much as he does and not see progress. He needs to get the ball in rhythm and then he will knock the shot down. I don't want to know how many times his teammates have missed Nate on a wide open cuts to the basket. He also isn't looking for his shot and being unselfish. His role is to get the team into sets and pass the ball to Mayo, Butler, and Neal so they can chuck up terrible shots, which he has done an excellent job doing. His defense hasn't been as bad as I thought it would be either.

                                Quote from Mayo on his own success so far this season:
                                "Open shots," Mayo said of his success so far this season. "Created by him (point guard Nate Wolters). Passes have been on time, on target, and it's my job to knock them down."
