Sixers center Nerlens Noel shot just 28.8 percent on attempts between three and ten feet from the basket, so he has chosen to spend a portion of his summer in Rhode Island concentrating solely on improving his shot.
With the supervision of his manager, Chris Driscoll, and former Boston Celtics coach John Carroll, the 6-foot-11 post player is working on his shooting and strength at Salve Regina University and the Boys & Girls Club of Newport County.
