Great defense from Simmons, but it just goes to show Luka’s incredible combination of size and skill.
The skill is obviously his ball-handling, footwork (hesitation + stepback) and shooting technique.
The size 6"8 along with his high release and the above skills allows Luka to get off a pretty “normal” shot for him. Despite the great defense by Simmons, Luka’s shot angle, motion and release are not radically different from his normal shot.
