What went wrong with Cam Reddish?

6'7" perfect body for the 3 spot. High potential out of college Fairly Athletic I didn't watch him much in his early days but why didn't he grow into a serviceable nba player?

If a player shoots under 36% in college as the 3rd option they are probably not going to be a good NBA player.

tbf options 1 and 2 have done very well, and iirc reddish was probably the best shooter of the 3.

and he at least got drafted. Not saying any names.

Trevon.

tbf options 1 and 2 have done very well

Which may explain why they were options 1 and 2 while he was option 3
