Free Throw practice. As English builds his next roster lets hope overall shooting and FT shooting are addressed. PC was 9th overall in FT % this past season. Oduro, Carter and Gaines, all of whom will most likely leave, were 3 of the top 4 FT shooters with only Pierre ranking 2nd. In fact other than the 4, no one on the team shot 70% or better this season. Hopefully there is some attention in either selecting Portal candidates or improving stats with existing players. Oduro was our best FT shooter and he got to the line a decent about of times. I always feel that with work, players can improve that aspect. But Castro is an example of a player who struggles shooting FT. Ed Cooley's staff had him shooting around 60% in very limited attempts last season and this year with Kim English's staff he had more attempts and was shooting around 40%. In any late games, Castro was a serious liability based on his stats. Which probably meant Gaines had to play the 5 rather than risk Castro with Oduro not an option.
