Cavs: Three-point shooting performance vs. CHA had to be a relief for Collin Sexton

Young Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton is going to be on the floor and presumably play big minutes to put the ball in the basket. He’s done just that again the 2019-20 season, as Sexton is leading Cleveland in scoring with 18.1 points per game, as indicated by NBA.com.

The issue, though, is that Sexton is again passing up too many three-point shooting opportunities, especially of the off-the-catch variety, which was often the case pre-All-Star break in his rookie season. Sexton is shooting just 29.2% on 3.1 triple attempts per game so far this season, which is obviously a huge step back from his rookie season in 2018-19, where he shot 40.
