Tayshaun Prince offering advice, most recently to Austin Daye

facebooktwitterreddit

Terry Foster of The Detroit News:

"Prince’s advice is to not worry about the shots but to do other things to help the team."I got my chance by not scoring at first," Prince said. "It was on the defensive end and everything came off that, and then it was all she wrote from that point on. I try to tell him to focus on the little things and worry about the offense later. It will come in the flow.""

That’s good advice, but more importantly, it’s coming from Tayshaun Prince. For a long time, Patrick has pointed out there had been no articles written about Prince mentoring younger players. That didn’t necessarily mean Prince didn’t offer advice to his teammates, but it was a negative indicator. That’s changing. First Brandon Knight and now Daye, Prince appears to be getting better at his veteran-leadership role.
