What's this?

Interesting stat...

Of the scholarship players who attempted a 3 last year, 5 players shot under 33%

4 of those 5 are gone. The 5th is David N'Guessan.

Those 5 are replaced by excellent shooters in Murphy and Pedulla, capable shooter Lynn Kidd, a non-shooting big in Jalen Haynes and **hopefully** a much better David N'Guessan.

To go from 5 sub-par shooters and a non-shooting big (Ojiako) to 0 sub-par shooters and 2 non-shooting bigs would be super helpful in opening up the rest of the offense

Question: At what % shooting should a player not be taking a three? -- 133921Hokie 10/05/2021 4:42PM

If they can't hit at least 50% in practice ** -- 1980VT 10/06/2021 2:22PM

When your 3% is less than 3/4 of your 2% basically -- Vienna_Hokie 10/05/2021 7:03PM

There isnt a specific percentage... -- GCHokie34 10/05/2021 4:45PM

And the best part of having a lot of shooters is that we don’t have to live -- VT One 10/05/2021 3:21PM

I would add Maddox as an excellent shooter with alot more PT this year ** -- vtbball80 10/05/2021 3:04PM

I wasnt excluding him... -- GCHokie34 10/05/2021 3:50PM

No problem, my point was only that.... -- vtbball80 10/05/2021 4:05PM

For sure, better shooters taking more shots is key ** -- GCHokie34 10/05/2021 4:09PM

NGuessan only took two 3s. You can make stats say anything you want. haha -- chagerma 10/05/2021 3:03PM

N'Guessan took 31 FTs... -- GCHokie34 10/05/2021 3:45PM

What about Mattox? ** -- 13HOKIE 10/05/2021 2:44PM

Maddox is a great shooter... -- GCHokie34 10/05/2021 2:51PM

I think the addition of Storm is really going to boost the offense. -- Hokiekid1 10/05/2021 2:21PM

Those five players -- David Cunningham
