Analyst Uncovers Shocking Payton Pritchard Stat That Will Change How You See Him Forever
So here we are, Boston Celtics trying to find their footing without Jayson Tatum’s usual magic on the court—quite the uphill battle, isn’t it? You might be wondering: how does a team that depended so much on Tatum adapt when their Sixth Man of the Year, Payton Pritchard, suddenly looks like a different shooter altogether? I mean, 25% from three-point range? That stat alone has my head spinning. It’s like watching a marksman suddenly throw his aim out the window, and it’s got me thinking—can Pritchard rediscover that sharpshooter touch that kept defenses honest last year? Because if he doesn’t, Boston’s chase for the playoffs might just hit a snag early on. Let’s dive into the numbers and the nitty-gritty behind this perplexing dip, shall we?
The Boston Celtics are adjusting to life without Jayson Tatum, and they need the help of every single player in the lineup. Anything less than 100 percent from their roster just won’t cut it this year.
Payton Pritchard, who won Sixth Man of the Year last season, is averaging 14.6 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 4.9 assists this season, which is in line with what he did in 2024-25. But when you look deeper into his numbers, you see he is struggling with one vital aspect of his game.
As noted by Daniel Donabedian on social media, Pritchard isn’t shooting three-pointers like he used to. Obviously, that is severely hurting his team’s chances.
“Payton Pritchard shooting 25% from 3 this season is mind-boggling,” Donabedian posted on X.
Payton Pritchard shooting 25% from 3 this season is mind-boggling

Last year, Pritchard shot 47.2 percent from the field and 40.7 percent from beyond the arc. This year, he is sinking 41.9 percent of his shots from the field but only 25.6 percent of his threes.
His overall percentage has dipped a bit, but his work from downtown has completely fallen off a cliff. He used to be Boston’s sure thing with threes, but that isn’t the case this year.
There could be multiple reasons for Pritchard’s struggles, including the fact that Tatum had a gravity on the floor that attracted a ton of defense. When opposing teams were targeting Tatum, it left others like Pritchard wide open to try for threes.
The good news for the Celtics is that the season is still young, and Pritchard may find his footing soon. If he does, Boston’s offense will get much stronger, and their chances of potentially making the playoffs will grow.
