What did this season mean for your career? Haywood Highsmith: I just wanted to prove that I’m a player who can play in this league for years to come. I’m an elite defender. I work on my game a lot. You can see that I’ve put in a lot of work. My 3-point percentage went up, and I had career-highs in points per game and shooting percentage. I feel like with my role in this league, I can be an elite 3-and-D player. But I’m not just limiting myself to that. I can also get to the cup, a floater, and different types of finishes, working the baseline with cuts while playing off the ball. -via HoopsHype / May 24, 2024
