If willing shooter is what you mean, I agree that volume is something this team lacks and needs more of. DLO isn’t the one I’d look to for that. He’s been pretty bad at the making them part.
Yeah, willingness to shoot is underrated but you do actually have to make them at a reasonable clip. I don't think Russell is this bad, but I'm not sure what he is any more. Honestly if you wanted more volume shooting Hardy is shooting more per 36 than Dlo and making them at a decent clip.
The good news is that Max is becoming a more willing shooter. Last year he jumped from 4.5 per 36 to nearly 5.5 and now its up to 7 this season. That is getting close to Dlo territory with a crazy good percentage. If he can keep this up he will be a very valuable player.
