Last summer, the Los Angeles Lakers traded guard Talen Horton-Tucker and forward Stanley Johnson to the Utah Jazz for Patrick Beverley, a veteran guard they hoped would give them a boost in a couple of areas.
Beverley has always been known as an intense defender, and, historically, he has been an accurate 3-point shooter and a vocal leader. Although he started poorly this season, he came on strongly, shooting 39.6% from downtown in December, January and February.
