Unlock the Secret Twist That Changes Everything in This Story
Ready to Fire
To establish whether players who don’t shoot 3-pointers should be reevaluated after one game, we’ll have to establish some parameters.
We’re looking for players who were established in the league, did not take 3s at a medium or high volume previously in their careers but then let it fly in their opening game in a particular season. So, we can look at a group of players based on the following criteria:
- Attempted at least six 3-pointers in their season-opening game
- Played at least three seasons prior to the season opener
- Averaged under 2.5 3-point attempts per game in each season prior to that season opener
- Played at least 15 minutes per game the season in question (to exclude players who played a lot in the opener but did not do so for the season)
That list brings up 12 individual seasons since 2010. Almost all of them increased their 3-point attempts per game significantly.
