This is currently good for the 3rd highest team 3P% in the league:
1. Clippers (39.6%)
2. Thunder (39.1%)
3. Pelicans (38.7%)
4. Wolves (38.6%)
5. Pacers/Celtics/Bucks (38.1%)
Damn
These aren’t your grandpas Pels anymore
Shoutout to a lot of guys for putting in the work, but especially Herb Jones. The better he shoots, the more it’s going to open up the lane for Z and BI
I get uncomfortable whenever Nance shoots. He’s been making it this season.
Hawk is 125 3s shy of breaking Keegan Murray’s record. He’d have to average 3.125 3s a game to break it in the remaining 40 games.
With his current scoring volume he’d need to clock 31 minutes a game to reach those averages. And as I don’t see him reaching those kinds of minutes, he would need to go on a hot streak for us to start seriously hoping he could do it.
I think it’s very possible he does go on that hot streak though and brings that average 3p needed down to a more reasonable number. But currently this is where we stand after Hawk went through Willie Green’s Rookie DNP December Holiday Classic
