Williams being a guy that can hit 3s off motion like this is a step up from the stationary shooter types. Good work by Thybulle with a quick pass and LaRavia with the drive, each extending the advantage.

Option - Cross Flare from LA
LA's option series is one they run for ~only Luka. Last season they ran it 105 times. 74% of those there was no action after Luka got the ball. He just had to go make something happen. 5 of 9 times so far this year we've seen action after the catch. 2 of 3 vs LAC. The Film📽️⬇️

LA runs stack. Luka 3. Peterson does a nice job making the stack man's job difficult on this play but Luka hits a contested 3 anyway.

Utah with extra help on the post up. Pin-In Flare from LA and a cut of the remaining middle perimeter guy. Sexton for 3.

Horns Out Stack from LA. Either Luka or Williams could've gotten this to Sexton for a more open shot, but decent look anyway.

Either a double dribble or a filthy move. You can't tell at this angle, but Thybulle certainly thought this ball was picked up.

Odd closeout angle from Williams and then defending with his hands once he gives up a step Luka does his job to rotate to the rim. Thybulle's next up and leaves the dump off to play the kick. I'd rather defend this inside-out.

No back pressure + Kessler staying home for a roll gives up a practice shot
