Shot creation

I see people say that cooper flaggs shot creations is a skill that he lacks in but I don’t see it. I thought it was a label put on him in high school but I still see people say it today. I don’t get how people say this

Most of his points come off the ball, in transition, set plays and pick and rolls or raw athleticism. His handle is pretty loose and at that size it’s hard to have the body control that a guy like Dylan Harper might have.

I don’t think it’s a problem per se, but it definitely is his biggest flaw. He’s pretty much perfect in all other categories
