Larry Drew II looking for a better shot

Posted Dec 7, 2010
What’s point guard Larry Drew II’s solution to finally getting his shot to fall? Take better ones, said the North Carolina junior, who is 8-for-34 (25.5 percent) this season. “I know why my shots haven’t been falling – even my dad brought it to my attention,’’ he said, referring to his father, Larry Drew, who is head coach of the NBA’s Atlanta Hawks.
