When the Cleveland Cavaliers signed Georges Niang and then swung a deal to acquire Max Strus via sign-and-trade, the key takeaway was how both should be big-time shooting threats. Since becoming rotational contributors, both of those players have made their share of deep balls in recent seasons.
Niang has connected on 40.4 percent of his three-point attempts per contest over the last four seasons with the Philadelphia 76ers and previously Utah Jazz, and in the past two seasons, Strus shot 37.6 percent from range with the Miami Heat. In last two regular seasons, Niang hit 154 and 156 three-point shots, and Strus has hit 197 and 181 deep balls.
