That's one of the things I've been wondering. Why can't he take 1 step back for a 3pointer instead of shooting right inside the 3pt line? Also when he's around the basket, he will usually go for tips which he misses most of the time instead of rebounding it which leads to a 40% shooting avg.
I think he is about 25 or 26... he has (or had) a great potential,as a 7 footer who can shoot, jump, and run fast. But a problem is that he just simply can't understan the game of basketball... When Yi plays in D-league and China, it doesn't matter because his athleticism can cover his lack of BQ... but in NBA, you got to move fast and move smart. Yi can't do it. I'm glad to see him working harder than before tho.

Nice to see him getting some mins, but his game is too stationary. He is always in the same spot!!!
