Cleveland Cavaliers head coach JB Bickerstaff believes that Sam Merrill is more than just a knockdown shooter (averaging 6.3 PPG/1.3 RPG/0.9 APG/43.2% FG/44.7% 3-PT/75.0% FT).
(via Cleveland Cavaliers):
“He understands the game of basketball. He’s a good basketball player who if you want to chase him, be physical with him… he has the ability to turn the corner and he’s got great touch in the paint too, knows how to get the ball up over the top of big guys and those types of things.
