3 Questions Coby White will have to answer immediately next season

#2: How does Coby White fit with Josh Giddey? 

White is not a traditional point guard, more of a lead guard who can make plays but looks to score first. 

He had a 22.7 percent usage rating last season, which is expected to go up with DeMar DeRozan in Sacramento. 

Newcomer Josh Giddey is more of a quote-unquote point guard who looks to create for teammates first and score second. His usage rating was slightly higher than White’s and that is expected to go up with an increased role in Chicago. 

Something may have to give here. Either White needs to show he can be just as effective off the ball, occasionally relegated to a spot-up shooter, or Giddey has to improve his shooting and show he can knock down shots off the gravity White creates. 

Unfortunately, neither White nor Giddey were good in catch-and-shoot situations last season, as White shot just 36.5 percent from long range and Giddey just 34.4 percent. 

They both need to improve in these situations to maximize the other’s ability to get into the lane and draw defenders. Ideally, White would be closer or over 40 percent on the five catch-and-shoot attempts per game he had last season.
