The lack of three opportunities for White especially near the end was strange.  I guess Haase thought Wills and Davis should take those three shots.

It wasn't just near the end...and it wasn't just for White.  One of the most frustrating things about Haase's "system" is that it appears to make absolutely no effort to get regular, decent three-point opportunities for our best 3-pt shooters.  I believe that Jones' first 3-pt shot in the last game [and, possibly, his first shot of the game] came with 12 minutes left in the second half, and it came out of transition, not running the offense.  Of course, it was pure and hit nothing but net.

Our offensive system is built almost entirely on kamikaze drives to the basket, with the occasional fairly-well-contested 3-pt shot hoisted up -- most often late in the shot clock -- for good measure.

Since White isn't particularly good at that, and, though a solid 3-pt shooter, not quite as good at that as Jones, it makes little sense for him to continue playing backup in an offense that pretty much ignores his signature skill.

Of course, it might just be that he wanted to go somewhere else where he could grow that man bun again...
