Three point shooting has been a persistent theme in recent years when fans discuss Kansas basketball. For a long time, there was criticism that Self’s squads weren’t taking advantage of their shooting ability, as Kansas consistently ranked in the bottom half, and even bottom quarter of D1 basketball in the percentage of their field goal attempts that came from behind the three point arc.
Those concerns are a thing of the past now, with this year’s team taking 42% of their shots from deep, ranking 72nd in the country. They rank 1st in the Big 12 with 44% of their shots coming from behind the arc in conference play.
