Yes, the post was made by the NBA G-league
But 8 3-pointers?
He must have put a ton of shots up in the gym to improve his shooting to have 8 3s on any level, although interesting is the photo in the post still shows his ugly shooting form

I like Wallace a lot. Still do. But, that stat must be from G-League not NBA (Long Island Nets, not, Brooklyn Nets). Please correct me if I am wrong.
Go Bears!
He always needed a reliable outside shot. Maybe he gets a shot at the NBA?
He did for the Clippers here and there. He presents matchup problems at the 1 and 2 on D because of how long he is. I think he's capable of making threes, like Jaylen was capable at Cal, but developed it in the League. Hope he makes it back. Go Bears!
With all due respect, I think you are mistaken on this. Jaylen was the second worst in the rotation on a team of poor three point shooters, except for Mathews and Bird. Here are the numbers for some of the players from sports-reference.com:
For the 2015-16 season:
Mathews 0.416
Bird 0.409
Domingo 0.306
Wallace 0.298
Brown 0.294
Singer 0.270
For their careers:
Brown 0.294
Wallace 0.292
Singer 0.275
Domingo 0.201
The NCAA average was probably about 0.350 for threes. The good three point shooters are all over 0.400 and some get to 0.500. I don't thing any Cal fan would describe Sam Singer at 0.270 as "capable", and Brown was only slightly better than Singer. I think Brown's improvement in the NBA system, whether it is coaching or hard work on his part, or both, I think what he has done since leaving Cal is incredible. Maybe he is more comfortable shooting from longer range than the NCAA circle. Has Brown improved his free throw shooting in the NBA? At Cal, he shot them poorly (for a wing or guard) at 0.654.
Wallace is an incredibly hard worker, so hopefully he can make the same improvement. It would be great to see.
