UNC Basketball Summer Preview: Andrew Platek

Posted Aug 10, 2020
Last season, 46% of Andrew Platek's field goal attempts were from three, making 23% of them. He’s going to fire away with little interest in attacking the paint. However, even a 35% shooter will prevent defenses from sagging into the lane and denying entry passes. If Platek can fix those shooting woes, he’ll justify 14-18 minutes per game on the wing.
