Nik Stauskas' shooting ability sounds almost too good to be true.
Michigan Wolverines coach John Beilein conveyed a sense of wonder when he recently recalled one of Stauskas' first college practices as a freshman in 2012. In one drill, Beilein said, Stauskas sank 78 out of 85 attempts from 3-point range.
There's no denying how well Stauskas shot the ball during his two seasons at Michigan. After he sank 44.0 percent of his 3-point tries as a freshman, he sank 44.2 percent of his 3s as a sophomore and also was named the 2013-14 Big Ten Player of the Year.

Re: Nik Stauskas draft profile: He hits shots
The guy can shoot, and he's better with the ball (as far as ball handling and passing) than most guys that shoot at that level. Plus he's got a little size, which hopefully will help him finish around the rim a bit better than his athleticism would lead you to believe.
If he can defend the 2, he could be a real asset to someone.
