Today's Clippers beat the Magic, counting yesterday's game against the Wizards. The Clippers have shown very good game shape in these two games, and the reversal team is really not in vain. The Clippers are very dynamic at this stage. Among them, the performance of young player Kofi is also getting better and better. The young player gradually came into view.
The Clippers won both games, and the team's use of Kofi was very important, and Tyrenlu activated Kofi. Kofi scored a total of 48 points in these two games, and two seasons ago Kofi stayed on the cold bench and barely got a chance to play.
Playing Wizards Coffey scored 29 points and shot nearly 50 percent from the field. Playing magic Kofi today had 19 points, 6 rebounds and 5 assists in all-around stats. Since the beginning of the game, Kofi has averaged nearly 8 points per game in 21 minutes, shooting 46% from the field, shooting nearly 38% from three-point range, and approaching 90% of the free throws, making him a very efficient scorer. The Clippers are short of manpower this season, Leonard and George can't play at the moment, the Clippers still have a good record, and Kofi's growth is very critical.
How does Tyrone Lu use Kofi? In addition to giving him more playing time, Terronlu also found the right way to use Kofi. Coffey has the ability to digest the ball on the offensive end, and the last game played by Wizards Tyrenlu simply gave up three starts in the second half and began to let the bench play a big game on the field. Kofi got the ball as well as the shooting chance, and he didn't waste it.
Kofi has a very keen sense of smell on the offensive end, and breaking through the mid-range three-pointer is his regular means of scoring. Coffey is also a good player in fast attack counter-attacks, and his finishing efficiency in fast attacks is extremely efficient. This season he has shot more than 70% fast-breakers. As a result, Kofi's true shooting percentage is a staggering 62% with less than 14% of the round.
On the defensive end, Kofi is not a player with extremely good physical talent, he relies more on awareness and experience. The Clippers are a team that places high demands on the player's single defense ability, and Kofi's single defense ability is not bad. In particular, kofi has averaged offensive fouls this season in the league's top 30. Defensive experience has been outstanding.
However, it is such a good player that two years ago he did not get a chance to play. Two seasons ago, during Coffey's rookie season, he was pressed on the cold bench by then Clippers head coach Rivers and basically didn't get a chance all season. Kofi played in less than double digits during his rookie season, averaging just three points per game, and the Head Coach Rivers didn't trust young players much. At that time, the Clippers also had Leonard and George in the lineup, and it was not difficult for Kofi to compete with them for playing time. But starting last season, Tyronelu, who took over the Clippers, discovered Coffey's potential. Although Kofi did not play much time last season, his efficiency steadily improved until this season, when Kofi seized the opportunity to usher in an explosion. This season is the third season of Coffey's career, and he is only 24 years old and very young. In the future, he will have very good room for growth, and the Clippers will also increase his training.
In the end, after Rivers left the Clippers, both Mann and Kofi, two young players, grew up. Batum, the veteran, returned to his old age, and Kennard went straight to the peak of his career. This proves that Clippers head coach Tyronn Lu has a very strong ability to develop players. It is undoubtedly a blessing to be able to play with such a manager.
