looks vs good looks

Perhaps I am seeing something that's not there on Davis' threes, but for some reason I get the impression the mechanics aren't text book. I feel like I have seen several of his shots that come off with a tint of a sideways spin.

Anyone else have anything to add on this? Perhaps I've not seen enough video/live action of Davis or have just happened to catch an inordinate number of "bad releases"?
I believe that Jalen has gotten more good looks in recent games.
Jordan has gotten some looks, but they are often after having to make a circus catch of a pass headed for the seats. I think he made 3 such catches last night.
Both of their shots seem have a lot to do with things that happen before they get the ball. When either one receives a pass with the ball hitting them in the shooing pocket, they look very good. I give Jordan the edge because his release is quicker and higher.
When either have to reach up and make a one handed over the shoulder grab while keeping their feet in bounds, the percentages drop considerably.
Jalen has been the recipient of many more pocket passes in recent games. He also tends to end up open with the ball in his hands when there are breakdowns and defensive scrambles.
