Walker Kessler has worked on his shooting form

Former Auburn Tiger and current member of the Utah Jazz Walker Kessler is definitely not known for his three-point shooting.

He shot three threes in his rookie season and did happen to make one of them.

Kessler told Eric Walden of the Salt Lake Tribune that during the offseason playing for Team USA in the Fiba World Cup, he worked on his shot form.

The shot form tweaks included keeping the ball more in front of his face and fixing his base.

Playing center in the NBA now is much different than it was years ago. Everyone needs to be able to shoot that ball, and clearly, Kessler knows that and is adapting his game.

Kessler's teammates Lauri Markkanen and Kelly Olynyk told Walden that they feel confident in his ability to shoot the ball and that if teams leave him open, which these guys think they will, they want Kessler to shoot it.

We all know how good Kessler was his rookie season on the boards and blocking shots, so if he can add the mid-range jumper and three-ball to his arsenal, he will be deadly.

Kessler is expected to have a big sophomore season leap for the Jazz and will truly become one of the young stars in the NBA.
