Pacers' Vogel says Copeland may be their best shooter

Indiana Pacers forward Chris Copeland will see time at both the 3 and 4 positions this season, according to head coach Frank Vogel, who also added that he is "maybe the best shooter on our team."

Copeland is taking on the responsibility of learning two positions, which is typically a daunting task for players during their first year with a team. Coach Vogel described Copeland as a "good, complete player," and his versatility will surely help him earn more minutes on the court. Vogel also noted that Copeland's skill set provides the team with something they really didn't have last year, and complemented his surprisingly quick release. Copeland will see a lot of competition at the wings this season, but if he can prove to be a consistent scorer from beyond the arc, it may translate into noteworthy fantasy consideration.
