His 3PT% may still hover around the same stats next year
but hopefully, he'll look more comfortable taking them next year, in various ways.
If he eventually hovers around the 35-37% mark in a few years, i think that be fantastic
Even 33-34% would help greatly.
I think he improves to 37-38% next year. Shooting motion will get sped up.
That's a masssssive leap from 30%. I'd take the under on that for sure. My guess is he'll flirt around the 33% mark next year.
Siakam's jump to 37% in his MIP year was surprising for all. I'm thinking the presence of Kawhi had a lot to do with it. He's since regressed YOY in terms of percentage and attempts, as he changes his game to more on-ball.
I would think that also applies to Barnes. More ball handling responsibility might prevent him from getting as many 3's up. He's injured, but 0/5 from 3 in the playoffs so far. Not great, but obviously small sample.
It's not a really massive leap. Lots of 2nd year, 3rd year players go from 30 to 40%. VC did it as well.
Maxey went from a 30 to 43% shooter even.
I'm gonna say 37% on about 4 attempts per game.
Put the work in and you'll get there quickly. See Precious, 3.9 attempts, 39% since ASB.
Very doable.
