How's Keegan Doing?

After Wednesday night's win:

I haven’t watched a game in about a month. But unless things have changed with their offense, they almost exclusively play Keegan out at the 3pt line which makes it awful hard to rebound on that end of the floor. He’s basically being a SG out there. Ideally he could pull more in on the defensive end and it looks like he has the ability from this most recent game. But he won’t ever be a regular 10 rebound guy if his whole offensive game is 3pt shots with one or two slashes to the hoop per game.
 
The Kings won. That's the most important thing
Keegan, like any rookie, has had ups and downs. Overall, I see improvement on all aspects of his game. The biggest issue I saw from him early on was the rebounding thing. He's being more aggressive now going to the rim. Mike Brown is challenging him to get to the rim more to finish and rebound. I've watched each game, and it's hard to be objective because I'm a huge Hawk fan and Keegan fan. But I'll tell you that there have been times during the year watching the games, and I've yelled "Keegan, you're not helping your team!" However, more than not, I've yelled to my wife, "Come here! You gotta see what Keegan did! Holy S--T!"

Yeah, been up and down for sure, but he's coming along.

Nice team effort. Hat's off to HB and Lyles. Those guys have been huge lately. 6 games above .500 too.
