After torching teams from the perimeter to start the season, Payton Pritchard is now waging war in the trenches of the paint.
Pritchard’s last four games have been remarkable, averaging just over 24 points a night on a near blistering 49% from behind the arc (10.8 3FGAs). The three-point shooting has always been his calling card playing off his more decorated teammates, but more recently, he’s showcased a bigger skillset and ability to score at all three levels.
“Payton’s definitely been in my bag, man, for sure. Got my shoes on. I’m gonna take my joints back,” Jaylen Brown said of Pritchard after he scored 25 points and put out the Heat.
