One other thing I don’t think I’ve mentioned yet this season that shouldn’t go unnoticed…Hicks has really improved at both ends of the court. In addition to shooting well, he’s expanded his game and is putting it on the floor some more when guys close out hard on him. He’s also become a “plus” defender…he’s not getting a bunch of steals and overplaying passing lanes, but he’s staying in front of his man, and getting some blocks.

Hicks reminds me of Myles Dread. Both are/were very good 3 pt shooters when they could spot up. Neither one shoots well when shooting on the move and neither one takes/took many shots in the paint.
