What makes Rajon Tucker effective offensively

It is very common for players who score inside not to be able to make outside shots. Oddly enough, it is not uncommon for the flip side to be true: good 3-point shooters do not shoot a correspondingly good percentage from inside the arc. One of the things that makes Rajon Tucker a good scorer is that he shoots well both places. He is shooting 40% from the arc, which we will take any day. He is also shooting 50.9% overall, which means he is shooting 56% from inside the arc. Obviously, the fact that he is good both places makes him more effective both places, since defenders slack off on him in different situations.
