LA Lakers coach Darvin Ham told Jovan Buha of The Athletic in the preseason that he's comfortable with Jones spotting up from the 3-point area."There's some underneath out-of-bounds and some sets and some running habits that's going to allow him to be able to take that shot," Ham said. "And I have all the trust in the world in it. The way he's shot the ball since we've been working out and different shooting drills."Ham continued:"He's capable of making that shot, more than capable. I know, no disrespect to Robin, but if I have Robin Lopez making 3s, I'm sure I can get Damian Jones to make 3s."Jones is comfortable taking 3-point shots and has shown improvement over the years. He has been practicing in the offseason and making them in practice. He won't be afraid to shoot from beyond the arc whenever he's open."If I'm open, and I'm in the corner, and they pass it to me, I'm shooting it," Jones said. "I'm comfortable shooting there. I've been getting a lot of reps in. Throughout the years, my percentages have been getting better as I'm shooting them. So, it's good."Damian Jones career in retrospectDamian Jones was drafted by the Golden State Warriors.Damian Jones was the 30th overall pick by the Golden State Warriors in the 2016 NBA draft.
