Yeah, you could tell his confindence really suffered at some point when he realized the game was a little faster and more physical than he'd been accustomed to. He certainly got it back towards the end of the season.

plus Nelson won't be asked to play the 5 spot much
Right before he committed last year I remember us specifically talking about his tendency to trail defensively against slashing guards.
That combined with his physical stature against big men really put him at a huge disadvantage this season, but if anything hopefully it helped him to understand the nuances of the stretch-four position even more, such as how to better open up driving lanes for teammates, for example (because he should better understand what the five is supposed to be doing).
