The problem isn't that he's missing deep shots. Those are hard to connect on. The problem is that he's missing gimmes. He's somehow air-balling simple uncontested layups.
I still cannot understand why his front foot seems to swing sideways and his back leg kicks out on seemingly every 'on platform' throw he makes downfield. He just isn't stepping into the ball. And unsurprisingly, he seems to be 'hooking' those balls to the left. It looks a lot to me like his lower half is just a complete mess.

Is it his ankle he is worried about? I wonder if it just misses with his mind a tad bit subconsciously that he steps that way?
