Devin Vassell - Savvy Scorer/Crafty Creator

Devin Vassell was simply sensational for the San Antonio Spurs this past season: second on the team in scoring with a career-best 18.5 points per game on 43.9% from the field, 38.7% from 3 (on 7.0 attempts per game), and 78.0% from the line. Not bad for a player who had a career best usage Cleaning the Glass.
Vassell’s increased versatility is what impresses. He came into the league as a 3&D player but has evolved into more of a three level scorer. Devin is money from the midrange, shooting 42% on high volume (he ranks in the 87th percentile for wings in terms of shooting frequency from middies). He attempts a lot from the long mid (in the 98th percentile for wings) and he cashes out at 47%. His contemporaries at converting from shots outside 14 feet at that clip are Austin Reaves, Jaylen Brown, Michael Porter Jr, Cade Cunningham, Kawhi Leonard, Kevin Huerter, and DeMar DeRozan.
He reminds some of the midrange maestros that have donned the silver and black before him. Zach Lowe wrote in a 10 things column from late March:
“Vassell has hit only 21 of 75 pull-up 3s, but he's comfortable jacking 2s on the pick-and-roll. Vassell has tripled his pick-and-roll volume this season, per Second Spectrum. The Spurs have scored 1.05 points per possession when Vassell shoots after using a ball screen or whips it to a teammate who launches -- 46th among 207 players who have run at least 100 such plays, per Second Spectrum. Given San Antonio's ad hoc roster, that number is massively encouraging.”

Wemby is getting all the attention, but Sochan and Vassell are potentially huge pieces of their rebuild too.

Devin Vassell is what Shawn Livingston may have become if he didn't break his leg in half. Welcome back, Evin. I was expecting a 'midrange mastery' vid when I saw his name, but this vid told me he is also great at finishing in traffic and getting people off balance.

I'm so glad your back doing these. Haven't seen another channel with a collection like this.

Davin took advantage of playing alongside Derozan for some time. I see a lot of Derozan in him, but with a good 3pt shoot.

definitely my favorite current day spur. pace and touch around the rim and mid range is addicting to watch

Man, people that don't know what he's about, are gonna find out this season

a 6'5 wing that have a standing reach of guys 6'9 and a wingspan of 6'11. can handle the ball and run the pnr like a guard. his efficiency is above average at decent volume. he needs to up the volume and maintain efficiency. he needs reps on how to get defenders to commit fouls on him. he needs more lower body and core strength. he has potential to be a top 2 guard in the league if he can address those things. very achievable i would say.

@glovs4188 9 ай бұрын

i also expect him to be a way better defender this season cause of the simple fact that wemby is in the paint which can allow our guys to put more ball pressure and can funnel their guys to wemby.

If Vassell learns how to absorb contact well, it will elevate his offense to another level. He tends to avoid contact and relies to much on his length and shot creation ability when he scores.

@ninjachannel007 10 ай бұрын

Agreed. An offseason in SAs weight room should help. They have great trainers down there.

Sochan, vassell, Johnson, Wemby…. Spurs future looking bright. They just need a top tier PG. Tre Jones is nice but probly ultimately a great backup
