Dennis Schroder: In the future, I want to be a starting point guard

Dennis Schroder said that he wants to be a starting point guard in the future in his exit interview.

Per ESPN, “In the future, I want to be a starting point guard,” Schroder said at the Hawks’ last gathering on Monday in Atlanta. “Everybody knows it. But in the situation I was this year, I was fine with it. I played my minutes, and I just tried to get better. When the coaching staff and everybody decides I get the team [and start], I’m going to be ready for it.”

He wants to improve on his leadership skills and ability to be a better closer as well.“The important minutes are at the end of the game and that you close out games,” Schroder said. “I think for me it’s clear: In the future, I want to be a starting point.”
