Love the role he’s playing and he seems to understand it. Dish out assists and you have the green light to shoot when you get the space. He’s crushing the first part, his shot selection is a bit questionable but the shot will start falling at a higher rate. Even if he ends up only shooting around 35% from the field, 90%+ of his shots are threes so that number would be fine. Where we need Butler picking his spots and being the picture of efficiency, a role he’s been well suited for, Kerr allows us to play a Joker card where now you’re dealing with something less conventional and predictable. It’s working, the shot hasn’t fallen like at all, yet Kerr has been highly playable. If he can get on a tear during SEC play, his 17 minutes are going to be a son of a bitch to gameplan against.
