Needs to work on not leaning back during his shot. Jacobson did that a lot as well and missed short on a lot of three point shots. It's July and he's 18. He'll be a weapon with that smooth stroke

I'd argue he's not leaning back (tough camera angle), at least nowhere near Jacobson.
Why are the coaches having him shoot 18-footers? 3's and layups....

Short corner shot is a fine shot to take. One dribble pull ups not so much (depending on who's shooting it).

I'm not sure how you could tell from that angle. Jacobson's biggest problem was shooting on the way down on his jump shot. Foster looks like more of a set shooter from that video.

Because that's part of his game. Just because he is 7 foot does not mean he can only dunk.
