2. Bring international flair

It is well known that the San Antonio Spurs love to tap into the international player market and have done so with great success over the years. Did the franchise have a light bulb moment and realize that the same approach could be beneficial when searching for a new shooting coach?

Talk about thinking outside of the box. Baron suited up in some of the best international leagues on the planet, including stops in Belgium, Spain, Italy, France, Turkey, and Lithuania. During that time, he gained invaluable knowledge from not only the greatest sharpshooters in the world but also how to adjust his form in different circumstances.

By leaning on his expertise that few clubs have, Baron can infuse an international flavor into how the Spurs players develop their shot. What makes this point so interesting is how rarely we have thought about or seen teams tapping into a resource like this.
