http://www.sacbee.com/kings/story/2020840.html The Kings' rookie guard needs to improve his shooting, his passing and his decisionmaking. But when it comes to rookie NBA players and the age-old process of maximizing their abilities, this is the sort of job every bidder wants, like landing the contract on the next Trump Tower on the Strip. Because as the first two games of summer league action showed, investing in Evans pays off. 因夏季聯盟頭兩場的表現，選Evans看起來是對的。 The 6-foot-5 talent out of Memphis has shined amid his peers on the UNLV stage, showcasing his physicality, speed and scoring ways while impressing the Kings and so many of the teams who didn't have a chance to draft him. 6'5的他在同儕中發光發熱，展現了他的身體素質、速度和得分方式，讓國王和許多沒有機 會選他的人印象深刻。 His 25-point, 10-rebound, five-assist outing Saturday against Golden State was among the best performances of the session thus far, with Evans' ability to get to the line with such ease among his many lauded skills. After hitting 7 of 10 free throws in the opener, Evans had 12 free-throw attempts (making seven) against the Warriors. 他在對勇士時得了25分10籃板5助攻，是到目前為止最佳的表現，Evans上罰球線是輕而易 舉。在第一場投10中7後，對勇士時有12次機會(中7) "I think he's almost like a football player," said Minnesota president of basketball operations David Kahn, whose team picked fifth and sixth in the June 25 draft and had significant interest in Evans. "(Evans) needs a little bit of a head of steam, but … he will always find the hole like a running back and hit the hole and take it to the basket and score or get fouled. … We thought very highly of him." 「我認為他更像個足球員，他需要一點氣勢，但他總是可以像個跑鋒一樣找到洞，然後得 分或賺到犯規，我們對他的評價非常高」灰狼總管說。 As do the Kings, of course. But they have wasted no time in attempting to improve every facet of his game, none more so than his shooting. Evans, who has hit 12 of 29 shots overall and 2 of 6 three-pointers, has an unorthodox delivery in which he appears to fling the ball from behind his head. He often shoots while rising straight up, but other times leans back on his way up. The technique led to Evans' 45.5 percent shooting in his one collegiate season, although he shot just 27.4 percent from three-point range. 國王當然也完全沒有浪費時間地去加強他的各個方面，最重要的就是他的投籃。Evans總共 投29中12，三分投6中2，有個非正統的投籃姿勢，是從頭的後面將球拋出去。他常常急停 跳投，其他的時候會後仰。 While Kings consultant and summer league head coach Pete Carril has been working daily with Evans on his technique, it has been a joint effort between himself, head coach Paul Westphal and even Kentucky coach John Calipari, Evans' coach at Memphis. Coachie已經天天和Evans在改進他的投籃，還有保羅和Evans在曼菲斯的教練Calipari。 "First of all, the head coach of this team was one of the best shooters in the NBA, so he's got his ideas on how to improve that guy's shooting, and it just so happens that they're the same as mine," said Carril of Westphal, who shot 50.4 percent in his 12-season career. "We talked to (Calipari) on the phone and he said (Evans) has to shoot it faster, to get into (the shot) faster. I think … getting rid of it faster will get the shot down so he doesn't fling it and push it up toward the basket. 「首先，這隻球隊的總教練是NBA最好的射手之一，所以他知道如何改善投籃，我也是一 樣，我們和Calipari通電話，他說Evans必須更快一點，投籃要更快一點。因此他不用拋的 ，而是用推的」Coachie說 "When you put your arm around a guy who could be great, you don't want to leave any stone unturned as to realizing that goal." Evans, meanwhile, said he is open to the collaborative coaching as long as it helps him reach his potential. And the pairing of he and Carril appears to be an odd, yet effective one, with six decades of experience separating the 19-year-old Evans and the 79-year-old Carril. Evans說只要能夠幫助他開發他的潛力，他可以接受這種教導方式。而他和Coachie差了60 歲。 "Coach (Carril) has just been telling me I've got to follow it through," he said. "He says I have a habit of shooting from my hand and not putting a lot of touch on it. That's like my papa. He's telling me the situations he's been through, the situations he has coached when he had his time. I'm interested in everything he has to say. Whatever he's got to say, I'll get better at." 「Coachie一直告訴我必須遵守，他說我習慣投籃時手和球碰觸不多。就像我爸一樣，他 在跟我說他經歷過的，我對於他所說的一切都有興趣，不管他說什麼，我都會變得更好」 ========================================================= Evans加油，Coachie加油 --
